Re: Building on 64 bit OpenBSD; ElfW

I am just, and only, asking: DOES IT Adam> LOOK SANE? As a set of preprocessor directives it looks quite OK but I assumed that it was not that level of inspection you wanted? I though the question you wanted answered was does this do the right thing? As Stephen points out I haven't got the knowledge to answer that. But you have tested it to some extent at least I think(?), we have build slaves for it, why not apply and let the tests do their thing? Adam> That is the way contribution by newcomers works most places, I Adam> have found. Yes, and I think it does so here too but not always. The number of active developers does have an impact on the responsiveness. The OS environments you have set up build slaves for is quite likely such an area where there might not be that much response. In those cases I suggest we try to find some way to handle it. Applying the patches is my suggestions. In the future I'll try to be more verbose when it comes to patches since silence is a bad thing for a contributor. Please be patient and stubborn and keep those patches coming.
