* monitor/mon-command.c: Add support for partial command matching.
	The monitor used to have this functionality before it was overhauled
	to support addition of user commands.

* monitor/mon-prmisc.c: Correct print line.
	* shell/Makefile.am: Added new file telnetd.c.
	* shell/telnetd.c, shell/telnetd.h, shell/pty.c: New files.
	* shell/shell.c, shell/cmds.c, shell/shell.h: Numerous improvments:
	   - The shell_init has a new parameter 'forever' because in
	     /dev/console you need that this process runs forever but in
	     tcp/ip not. (respawn?)
	   - A new task for every session opened trought tcp/ip telnet client.
	     (the chargen,daytime and more are possible of implementation but
	     I ask me if they are necesary)
	   - Exit from the session delete the task and when the client fails too.
	   - More cmds have been implemented. (very reduced version of these)
	     umask, chmod, id, whoami, rm, cat, ...
	   - A reduced line edit has been implemented.
	       Ctrl-C abort the input,
	       Ctrl-d in the first position gives EOF (logout).
	       '\b' and DEL makes the rubout operation.
	       I think that readline() for every session spents a lot of resources.

Joel Sherrill ca7858bb88 Port of RTEMS to the Texas Instruments C3x/C4x DSP families including
a BSP (c4xsim) supporting the simulator included with gdb.  This port
was done by Joel Sherrill and Jennifer Averett of OAR Corporation.
Also included with this port is a space/time optimization to eliminate
FP context switch management on CPUs without hardware or software FP.

An issue with this port was that sizeof(unsigned32) = sizeof(unsigned8)
on this CPU.  This required addressing alignment checks and assumptions
as well as fixing code that assumed sizeof(unsigned32) == 4.

Joel Sherrill b8a30d07a5 Patch rtems-rc-20000713-1-cvs.diff from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
that is yet another multilib-related structual cleanup patch:

  Changes:
  * Make RTEMS_TEST_NO_PAUSE a tests/ subpackage specific option.
    - Remove RTEMS_TEST_NO_PAUSE from custom/*.cfg, targopts.h and
      cpuopts.h.
    - Add autoconf macros RTEMS_*_RTEMS_TEST_NO_PAUSE
      (aclocal/rtems-test-no-pause.m4).
    - Add RTEMS_*_RTEMS_TEST_NO_PAUSE support to sptests/configure.ins
      and tmtests/configure.in. These are the only subdirectories which
      currently apply RTEMS_TEST_NO_PAUSE.
    - Add autoconf-DEFS support to all test subpackages' configure.ins
      below tests/. I.e. AC_DEFINES now get explicitly propagated as
      preprocessor defines into Makefiles, cf. AM_CPPFLAGS in
      tests/*/*.am, instead of using a global config-files.
    - Remove NDEBUG from custom/*.cfg.

  * AC_DEFINE POSIX_API, ITRON_API and MULTIPROCESSING in
    exec/configure.in, only.
    - All other sources now should relay on the values from cpuopts.h
      and should not define them themselves.
    - Several related changes to many configure.ins

  * Bug-fixes to RTEMS_*_RTEMS_DEBUG macros (Actually workarounds to
    quoting bugs in autoconf).

  Notes:
    * This patch is rather immature and only tested for a small subset
      of BSPs (requires the tests to be enabled and therefore takes an
      tremendous amount of disc space and time.)
    * The patches to *cfg were generated by a script. Expect file
      formating changes :)

Joel Sherrill 6f6ddc0011 Added RTEMS_CPU_HAS_16_BIT_ADDRESSES constant to disable code
that breaks when the target has 16 bit address space.  One of the H8
multilibs is a 16-bit address space CPU.  When a real attempt is
made to support this CPU model, the code that assumes an address
is 32 bits will have to change.  This constant is probably not
flagging all impacted code.

Joel Sherrill 32e2554f10 Patch rtems-4.5-beta3-mon.diff from Chris Johns <cjohns@cybertec.com.au>
to:

I have also added the ability to register and unregister commands. This
allows me to create a set of monitor commands for the network stack plus
basic memory dump/patch commands (needs a working probe interface). I
will also look at a basic ls/cd/rm/mv/cp command set at some stage.

I have been thinking about changing the monitor in the future to more
like a light weight RTEMS shell, `eshell' for embedded shell. This is a
story for another day but is a process or getting the commands to map to
the filesystem (eg, major=commands, minor=command) and supporting an
environment. The filesystem provide a structure for the commands.

Joel Sherrill 70810dcd89 Patches rtems-rc-20000204-0.diff from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
that contains:

* Removes remaining (now illegal) references to $(SRC) from a couple of
  Makefile.ams
* Removes duplicate AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS macro from c/configure.in
* Moves ENABLE_LIBCDIR into RTEMS_PROG_C[C|XX]_FOR_TARGET (hides LIBCDIR
  from most configure scripts, i.e. LIBCDIR becomes less visible)
* Adds RTEMS_PROG_C[C|XX]_FOR_TARGET and RTEMS_CANONICALIZE_TOOLS to
  libbsp/*/configure.ins (A minor bug in previous implementations, which
  only has an impact when switching to GNU/Cygnus canonicalization)
* Cleans up several bogus comments.
* Removes MKLIB
* Switches the version number to 4.5.0 (for testing version number
  handling)

Joel Sherrill 9608320702 Patch rtems-rc-19991117-4.diff from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>:
.. a major configuration cleanup
    ... major enhancement of automake support.

    ... and it contains a *major*  breakthough:

    Automake support for libchip and libmisc *LEAF* directories.

    To implement this I have used several nasty tricks
        * The basical trick is to wrap an old Makefile.in's contents into a
          Makefile.am and still continue to use (i.e include) the old
          *.cfg files.

        * Replaced each INSTALL_IF_CHANGE and INSTALL_VARIANT with make
          dependencies
        * Add a gnu-make ifdef AUTOMAKE to main.cfg to avoid conflicts between
          automake and RTEMS make rules
        * Replaced each install:: and preinstall:: rule with make dependencies
        * Replaced SUB_DIRS with SUBDIRS in all Makefile.ins (Automake
          convention)
        * Removed each manually added autoconf substitution which automake
          performs automatically.

    This is not yet full automake support, because using the temporary
    installation directory, preinstallation in general and building variants
    are in contradiction to automake's basic working principles ...

    ... the new Makefile.ams work still somewhat clumsy
    ... nevertheless they work (quite well).

    WARNING:

    At first glance this patch is small, but
        * it affects the whole configuration system.
        * it opens the road to introducing automake to all Makefile.ins
          currently not being under automake control.

    JOEL> Does this remove or add any files?

    Both, all Makefile.ins below libchip and libmisc get replaced with
    Makefile.ams.

Joel Sherrill 08311cc3a9 Updated copyright notice. 1999-11-17 17:51:34 +00:00
Joel Sherrill 458bd343e2 This is another pass at making sure that nothing outside the BSP
unnecessarily uses any variables defined by the BSP.  On this
sweep, use of BSP_Configuration and Cpu_table was eliminated.

A significant part of this modification was the addition of
macros to access fields in the RTEMS configuration structures.

This is necessary to strengthen the division between the BSP independent
parts of RTEMS and the BSPs themselves.  This started after
comments and analysis by Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>.

Joel Sherrill b07e06a1bc New files from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de> which
are a dummy for linking programs together when you are primarily

Joel Sherrill aba4025032 Removed targets and configurations that are no longer functional
and not likely to become so.  Comments on each configuration
are below.

  + Force CPU386 - This BSP was developed as part of the initial
    port of RTEMS to the i386.  This board has been unavailable
    for a long time now.

  + GO32 - This BSP and some CPU code supported djgpp v1.x.  This
    version is now quite old.  No one has stepped forward to
    update the code to v2.x which may be technically impossible
    anyway.  More importantly, go32 has been superceded by the pc386 BSP.
1999-10-11 16:12:05 +00:00
Joel Sherrill 811804fec8 Patch from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de> to make fix bug

Joel Sherrill e1d8abbe28 Applied patch rtems-rc-19990820-6.diff.gz from
Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de> which converted many
Makefile.in's to Makefile.am's.  This added a lot of files.
1999-09-07 13:45:03 +00:00
Joel Sherrill 6fc973e39b Patch from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>:
Here is another fix, which addresses a few more or less severe bugs in
    configuration and unix/posix:

    * Configuration fix: c/src/lib/configure.in didn't handle RDBG correctly

    * Configuration fix: make depend was non-functional in
      c/src/lib/libc/Makefile.in
    * Configuration fix: stray comment removed from aclocal/target.m4

    * RTEMS fix: termios support for unix/posix now uses the host's headers
      only (was completely broken).
    - Don't install RTEMS's newlib sys/termios.h for unix (sys/termios.h
      apparently is a newlib specific header)
    - To be able to compile RTEMS's  termios.c with glibc2.1, glibc-2.1
      needs __USE_MISC, which is a private define from gcc's features.h, being
      defined only when _BSD_SOURCE of _SVID_SOURCE is defined.  RTEMS's
      termios apparently implements BSD, thus -D_BSD_SOURCE was added to
      Linux-posix.cfg.
    - Conflicting definitions for  __USE_MISC and _BSD_SOURCE inside of
      RTEMS codes removed due to definition of _BSD_SOURCE on the toplevel.

    This fix has been tested with linux/posix (primary glibc2.1 native),
    linux/posix (secondary libc5 native), sh/gensh1, i386/pc386 and a couple
    of other bsp's/CPU.

    To apply:

        cd <srcdir>
        patch -p1 < rtems-rc-19990709-9.diff

    and
        aclocal -I aclocal && automake && autoconf
        cd c/src/lib; autoconf

    or
        ./autogen
1999-08-18 16:49:52 +00:00
Joel Sherrill 3a8915e6ee Patch rtems-rc-19990709-6-diff from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
applied.  This modified many Makefiles and custom files and makes many more
settings (network, multiprocessing, etc) gnerated by autoconf.
1999-08-06 17:55:25 +00:00
Joel Sherrill 1896a650fc Patch from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>:
The main topic is replacing the hard-coded values for HAS_MP and
  HAS_RDBG in custom/*.cfg with per-bsp configuration-time autoconf checks
  (This is the patch I had mentioned before earlier this week).

  CHANGES

  * HAS_MP removed from custom/*.cfg, replaced with configuration time
    autoconf check
  * HAS_RDBG removed from custom/*.cfg, replaced with configuration-time
    autoconf check
  * NEW: c/src/make/bsp.cfg.in, takes configuration-time checked per-bsp
    values (i.e. HAS_MP, HAS_RDBG), gets installed as
    $(prefix)/<bsp>/make/bsp.cfg
  * NEW: default.cfg includes bsp.cfg - this change is backward
    compatible.
  * IMPORT_SRC: apply VPATH instead for ts_386ex/i386ex subdirectory
    Makefile.ins
  * HACK: a bug in acpolish mis-handles addtions to makefile variables
    which are enclosed in gmake conditionals:
    c/src/lib/libbsp/m68k/ods68302/start302/Makefile.in
  * Apply inline_dir, HAS_MP and HAS_RDBG for avoiding configuration of
    unneeded subdirectories in various configure.in files.
  * Several minor changes in Makefile.ins and configure.ins, wrt. to the
    order of including *.cfg and defining Makefile variables

  APPLYING THE PATCH:

      patch -p1 < rtems-rc-19990709-4.diff
      ./autogen
1999-07-30 17:52:50 +00:00
Joel Sherrill 08b5f55b6f Patch from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>:
A bug in acpolish made it into rtems-rc-19990709-0.diff, which
    unfortunately affects all Makefile.ins:

    * The maintainer mode conditional was erroniously applied to the
      dependencies of "Makefile".

    In case you already checked in rtems-rc-19990709-0.diff to CVS you have
    to check in all Makefile.ins again after applying the patch below :).

    Please apply the patch below as follows:

        patch -p1 < rtems-rc-19990709-1.diff
        tools/update/rtems-polish.sh -ac

    Note: There is no need to rerun your tests if you have used
    --enable-maintainer-mode to configure RTEMS, because this patch converts
    all Makefile.ins to the same settings as used for
    --enable-maintainer-mode.
1999-07-26 20:31:49 +00:00
Joel Sherrill 6693a68ffa This is part of a major patch from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>
to move RTEMS more to automake/autoconf and GNU compliance.

    Finally, here they are: the "big-patch" patches - merged into one big
    patch (~1.5MB).

    Sorry for the delay, but testing took much more time than I had expected
    - esp. reworking the acpolish script triggered many more tiny issues
    than I had expected (cf. below).

    At least, now you've got something to spend your weekend with :-.


    WARNINGS:
    * I've gone a little (??) further than I had announced before.
    * Several directories have been moved.
    * Several files have been added and removed
    * I have tested it with many BSPs/CPUs and a variety of permutiations of
    configuration flags, but not with all.
    * Most parts of the patch are automatically generated, however there are
    many tiny manual modifications.

    APPLYING THE PATCH:

    ./autogen -c
    mkdir tools
    mv c/src/exec/score/tools tools/cpu
    mv c/build-tools tools/build
    mv c/update-tools tools/update
    patch -p1 -E < rtems-rc-19990709-0.diff
    ./autogen

    If the patch doesn't apply to rtems-cvs, I would suggest that you should
    try to apply it brute-force and then to run tools/update/rtems-polish.sh
    -ac -am afterwards. A recursive diff between rtems-19990709 + patch and
    rtems-cvs + patch then should report only a few dozen significant
    changes to configuration files which need to be merged manually (IIRC, I
    did not change any source files).

    *** Attention: There are files to be removed, moved, copied and added
    in/to CVS!

    NEWS/CHANGES:
    1. Configuration takes place in 3 stages: 1. per host (toplevel
    configure script), 2. per target (c/configure), 3. per bsp
    c/src/configure automatically triggered from ./configure and
    c/Makefile.am.
    2. Building of subdirectory c/ takes place in c/$(target_alias) for
    cross-targets in c/ for native targets
    3. Building of subdirectory c/src takes place in c/${target_alias}/<bsp>
    for cross-targets, c/<bsp> for native targets
    4. c/build-tools moved to tools/build
    5. c/src/exec/score/cpu/tools moved to tools/cpu (=cpu-tools split out)
    6. c/update-tools moved to tools/update
    7. New subdirectory c/src/make, handles files from make/ on a per BSP
    basis
    8. Maintainer mode support: Ie. if configuring with
    --enable-maintainer-mode disabled (the default), then tracking of many
    dependencies will be disabled in Makefiles. Esp. many dependencies for
    auto* generated files will be switched off in Makefiles. Ie. if not
    using "--enable-maintainer-mode" many auto* generated files will not be
    updated automatically, i.e. normal users should not be required to have
    auto* tools anymore (untested).
    9. Independent configuration scripts for / (toplevel), tools/build,
    tools/cpu, tools/update, c/, c/src/, c/src/exec, c/src/lib, c/src/tests,
    c/src/make
    10. Automake support for all directories above and besides c/src
    11. "preinstall" now is implemented as depth-first recursive make target

    12. host compiled tools (exception bsp-tools) are accessed in location
    in the build tree instead of inside the build-tree when building RTEMS.
    13. RTEMS_ROOT and PROJECT_ROOT now point to directories inside the
    build-tree - many tiny changes as consequence from this.
    14. --with-cross-host support removed (offically announced obsolete by
    cygnus)
    15. Changing the order of building libraries below c/src/lib/
    16. Former toplevel configure script broken into aclocal/*.m4 macros
    17. Newlib now detected by configure macros, RTEMS_HAS_NEWLIB removed
    from *cfg.
    18. sptables.h now generated by autoconf
    19. Rules for "mkinstalldirs temporary installation tree" moved from
    c/Makefile to subdirectories.
    20. Cpu-tools do not get installed.
    21. FIX: Use ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS instead of ACLOCAL = -I ... in Makefile.ams
    which are in directories with own configure scripts.
    22. Hardcoding BSP names into libbsp/.../tools to avoid RTEMS_BSP get
    overridden from the environment.
    22. FIX: Handling of MP_PIECES in various Makefiles
    23. FIX: Removing "::" rules from some Makefile.ins
    24. FIX: File permission chaos: (-m 444 and -m 555 vs. -m 644 and -m
    755) - Now all include files use -m 644.
    25. Removed many gnumake-conditionals in Makefile.ins - Partially
    replaced with automake-conditional, partially replaced with
    conditionalized Makefile variables (... _yes_V)
    26. Massively reworked acpolish: acpolish now parses Makefile.ins and
    interprets parts of the Makefile.ins.
    27. FIX: Some $(wildcard $(srcdir)/*.h) macros removed / replaced with
    explicit lists of files in Makefile.ins.
    28. FIX: Replacing MKLIB with RANLIB in Makefile.ins
    29. HACK: Add preinstallation for pc386 specific
    $(PROJECT_RELEASE)/BootImgs directory

    ... many more details, I can't recall


    KNOWN BUGS:
    1. make [debug|profile]_install do not do what they are promissing.
    "make [debug|profile] install" does what "make [debug|profile]_install"
    has been doing. Proposal: remove [debug|profile]_install
    2. Dependencies between temporary installation tree and source tree are
    not yet handled correctly.
    3. Dependencies between temporary installation tree and source tree are
    handled ineffencently (Using INSTALL_CHANGE instead of make
    dependencies)
    4. RTEMS_ROOT, PROJECT_ROOT, top_builddir, RTEMS_TOPdir now are
    redundant.
    5. The new configure scripts still are in their infancy. They contain
    redundant checks and might still contain bugs, too.
    6. RTEMS autoconf Makefile.ins use a mixture of configuration
    information gathered in c/$(target_alias)/<bsp>/make and of information
    collected from their configure scripts.
    7. make dist is not fully functional
    8. Subdirectory host-/build-/target- configure options (--target,
    --host, --build) do not conform to Cygnus/GNU conventions.
    9. Some RTEMS autoconf Makefile.in's makefile targets are not supported
    in automake Makefile.ams/ins (e.g. get, clobber).
    10. Some automake standard targets are not propagated from toplevel and
    c/Makefile.am to autoconf subdirectories (eg. make dist).
    11. rpcgen generated files are not part of the source-tree (Automake
    conventions favor supplying generated files inside the source-tree,
    however there is no support for rpcgen generated files in automake, cf.
    yacc/lex support in automake).
    12. RTEMS_HAS_RDBG handling is flaky. make/*.cfg use RTEMS_HAS_RDBG per
    CPU, while librdb's sources can only be built per BSP. Raises the more
    general question whether librdbg located correctly in the source-tree.
    13. All make/*cfg files are configured per cpu, currently there is no
    location to store per-bsp configuration information --> bsp.cfg, per
    aconfig.h?
    14. "make install" without having run "make all" beforehand does not
    work.
    15. handling of --enable-multiprocessing seems to be broken in
    make/custom/*
    16. Makefile.ins still exploit many gmake features.
    17. File permisson chaos on libraries (no explict -m for
    libraries/rels/etc).
    18. mcp750 Makefiles are broken (Note: I *do* mean buggy - I am not
    talking about "not-conforming to  conventions", here :-).
    19. Dependencies between configure scripts are not handled, eg. aborting
    "make RTEMS_BSP=<bsp>" can leave the build-tree in an unusable state.
    20. "make clean" does not delete <build-tree>/<bsp>. This is intentional
    for now, because rerunning "make" after "make clean" requires an
    explicit "make preinstall" afterwards now. This should be done
    automatically, but doesn't work in this case for now. To work around
    this problem <build-tree>/<bsp> is kept during "make clean" for now
    (HACK).

    TODO:
    1. split out host-compiled bsp-tools
    2. Use Cygnus/GNU standards for cross-compiling target-subdir
    (CC=CC_FOR_TARGET .. configure --host=${target_alias}
    --build=`config.guess'}), to be added to toplevel configure script after
    splitting out bsp-tools.
    3. Exploit per cpu support directory (c/src/<cpu>)- Splitting out
    per-cpu libraries - Are there any?
    4. Further automake support
    5. Converting subdirectories into standalone / self-contained
    subdirectories (Esp. moving their headers to the same common root as
    their sources, eg. mv lib/include/rtems++
    lib/librtems++/include/rtems++) - This is the main obstacle which
    prevents moving further towards automake.
    6. Propagating values from *.cfg into Makefiles instead of propagating
    them at make time via Makefile-fragments (i.e. try to avoid using
    *.cfg).
    7. Testing on cygwin host (I *do* expect cygwin specific problems).
    8. The ARCH in o-$(ARCH)-$(VARIANT) build-subdirectories is not needed
    anymore.

    GENERAL ISSUES:
    1. Temporary installation tree -- Ian and I seem to disagree basically.
    Though I think that I understand his argumentation, I do not share it.
    IMO, his way of using the buildtree is mis-using the build-tree, relying
    on an inofficial feature of RTEMS's current implementation, which
    doesn't even work correctly in the current build-tree, though it
    attempts hard to do so. From my very POV, it unnecessarily complicates
    the structures of the source- and build-trees. It is not supported by
    automake (No automatic generation for the necessary rules) and
    complicates the transition to automake significantly (Generating the
    rules with an enhanced version of acpolish could be possible).
    As Ian correctly pointed out, here a management decision is needed -
    though I don't see the need to draw this decision in short terms.

    2. preinstallation generally is a sure means to spoil the structure of
    the source tree, IMHO (No ranting intended, I am completly serious about
    this one). eg. through tree dependencies. The worst problem related to
    this I have found in the meantime is bsp_specs. bsp_specs is part of
    libbsp, ie. there is *no* way to build *any* part of the source tree
    *without* having a BSP *preinstalled*.
    Note: This issue is related to issue 1., but is not identical - The
    difference is the change of the order make rules have to be triggered.
    While preinstallation triggers rules spread all over the source tree
    before a "make all" can be run, a temporary installation tree could also
    be installed by post "make all" hooks (all-local:, to be run after make
    all in a directory is completed) if the directories' dependencies would
    be a tree,

    3. Stuctural dependencies between subdirectories.
    4. Depth of the source tree (Prevents multilibbing and introduces many
    unnecessary configure scripts).
    5. per cpu vs. per bsp configuration (There are no real per-cpu parts
    yets :-).
    6. automake does not support $makefiles in AC_OUTPUT. Unlike before, we
    now should try to avoid RTEMS_CHECK_MAKEFILE and to hard-code as much
    paths to Makefiles as possible.
    7. General redesign of the source tree
    8. Main installation point - Changing it to ${prefix}/${target_alias}. ?

    Besides item 8. (which is a must, IMHO), as far as I see most of them
    can not be solved soon and will remain issues in the mid- to long-term
    :-.

    REMARKS:

    * You (as the maintainer) should always use --enable-maintainer-mode
    when building RTEMS to ensure that maintainer mode generated files (esp.
    those in c/src/make) will be updated when make/* files have changed.
    * Use @RTEMS_BSP@ in Makefile.ins and Makefile.ams below c/src/,
    $(RTEMS_BSP) or ${RTEMS_BSP} will be overridden from environment
    variables when using make RTEMS_BSP="....".
    * c/src/make is a temporary cludge until configuration issues are
    solved. At the moment it is configured per bsp, but contains
    per-target/cpu info only. Its main purpose now is to circumvent
    modifying make/*.cfg files, because I consider make/* to be frozen for
    backward compatibilty.
    * This patch should only affect configuration files. At least I do not
    remember having touched any source files.

    * To build the bare bsp you now need to mention it in --enable-rtemsbsp.

    Example: building gensh1 and sh1/bare simultaneously:
    ../rtems-rc-19990709-1/configure --target=sh-rtems \
    --enable-rtemsbsp="bare gensh1" \
    --prefix=/tmp/rtems \
    --enable-bare-cpu-cflags='-DMHZ=20 -m1
    -DCPU_CONSOLE_DEVNAME=\"/dev/null\"' \
    --enable-bare-cpu-model=sh7032 \
    --enable-maintainer-mode \
    --enable-cxx
    make
    make install

    * The next steps in development would be to split out bsp-tools and then
    to change to Cygnus/GNU canonicalization conventions for building the c/
    subdirectory afterwards (i.e. many standard AC_*.m4 macros could be used
    instead of customized versions)

    FINAL REMARK:
    The issues mentioned in the lists above sound much worser than the
    situation actually is. Most of them are not specific to this patch, but
    are also valid for the snapshot. I just wrote down what I came across
    when working on the patch over the last few weeks.

    I wouldn't be too surprised if you don't like the patch at the current
    point in development. I am willing to discuss details and problems, I
    also have no problem if you would post-pone applying this patch to times
    after 4.1, but rejecting it as a whole for all times would be a false
    management decision, IMHO.

    Therefore I would suggest that you, if your time constaints allow it,
    should at least play a little while with this patch to understand what
    is going on and  before drawing a decision on how to handle this
    proposal. I know this patch is neither perfect nor complete, but I
    consider it to be a major breakthrough.  Don't be anxious because of the
    size of the patch, the core of the patch is rather small, the size is
    mainly the side effect of some systematic cleanups inside the Makefiles
    (result of acpolish).

    Feel free to ask if you encounter problems, if you don't understand
    something or if you meet bugs - I am far from being perfect and am
    prepared to answer them.

    Ralf.
