[beports] Re: curl.diff

Just a note to give you a link on the libs I've compiled so far in Haiku
to get a game porting enviroment setup for now. (completed and ran the
last build for scummvm with it).

http://zeta-games.com/temp/Haiku_libs.html

On that page I'll be updating any lib that I come across not being in
Haiku (or the headers), or any update on a newer version.

As a porter I am already shivering when you say drop __BEOS__, BeOS and
ZETA can be dead OS's but they are still around, Haiku, being
selfhosting only for a short while (wich we can only applaud) is not
directly fit for every day use. BeOS has been dead for 8 yrs now, but
still people are using it.
So for all times sake don't send any patches upstream that brake things
in BeOS/ZETA, instead add fixes related to Haiku without breaking down
(if possible!) other bulds.
PS ... trying to be short here ... otherwise the mail would end up being
to large. ;)

Hope this will not get me stoned. ;) (:wink: koki) ^^
