I've spent some time looking at klibc today, and find myself in a state of some puzzlement. The 0.79 snapshot does not build against 2.5.68; it fails almost immediately, apparently due to problems with include files. I'm hesitant to try patching anything to get it building, because I can find no sign of a CVS or BK repo that I can check against, and I don't want to replicate janitorial work that's already been done. Does there exist a CVS or BK repo somewhere that is anonymously accessible and has seen some maintenance since 0.79? If I generate some patches, should I be sending them here, or to HPA? <b
