Re: [avr-libc-dev] Testsuite (Was: How attached are people ...)

Here's my patch.  (ObLegalese: Yes, *of course* I grant permission for
this, and anything else I post to avr-libc-dev, to be distributed under
the terms of the 3-clause BSD license in the LICENSE file.)

BTW, is there a reason avr-libc doesn't use the "__flash" gcc extension?
It's so much more convenient than __attribute__((progmem)).

Not only is the dereferencing syntax nicer (the compiler generates LD
or LPM as appropriate), but it enforces the "const" qualifier, and most
importantly, "char const *p" and "char const __flash *q" are different
types and can't be assigned to each other (without an explicit cast).
