| Hi there;
|
| I've noticed that Luke is churning a bunch of the kernel
with
| __KERNEL_RCSID changes, which are apparently not causing
enough
| trouble to make any of the branch owners complain.
|
| I'm therefore going to assume (unless someone can explain
why the
| __FUNCTION__ change is significantly different) that we
can trust in
| CVS to merge the changes properly and there isn't really a
good reason
| not to fix the non-ANSI __FUNCTION__ stuff on the head.
I'll also do a
| second pass to get rid of __attribute__ stuff that isn't
hidden
| beneath the pre-defined header file wrappers. The net of
both of these
| will be to make using alternative compilers (like pcc)
work a lot
| better, which is the central motivation here.
|
| Comments?
My personal opinion and not core/board whatever is fine.
Since luke made
changes too, the tree has already been disrupted enough.
