I must be missing some subtleties.
Lemme guess:
You are suggesting mode-compile-chosen-compiler would be a better name
for the variable?
My goal for this patch was two-fold:
Sync with latest author-version 2.28.
Fix all typos I could find (that's why the variable was renamed).
My patch was approved and just went in.
Heddy seems to have fallen out of the net.
Google does not find his web page.
My mail to him bounced.
I don't want to get involved in variable renaming discussions for
externally maintained packages.
Seems to be a thankless job.
Fixing errors is what I will never shy away from.
Best regards,
Adrian
