Thanks a lot for all your work and posting the patches. I will go through them next week. I quickly scanned some just now. Some seem fine to go in. But others are a bit more iffy. I think some should really go towards gnulib if we are going to use that anyway so other projects get the same portability benefits. And I do worry a bit about others, like the O_BINARY one for example that patches every open call. That seems impossible to properly maintain and is clearly intended for a platform that is really not even POSIX/Unix-like. Cheers, Mark
