I think I've never published my patches for BeOS R5, which were rather big (about 100KB IIRC). From my experience back then I'd think the Haiku port would need a bit of patching too, or probably "unpatching" of the BeOS related changes. Anyway, if you have patches ready and they pass the test suite (or there are good explanations for the failing tests :-)), feel free to send them to me -- I can check them in under buildtools/patches. Similarly for the optional package: I can upload it to haiku-files.org and add the optional package to the build system. CU, Ingo
