Ugh. I wasn't aware indeed. In that case, I don't think more effort is warranted here. On the cross building side, I'll track the autogen removal bugs as cross build failures and call it a day. I suggest that reverting the M-A:foreign removal is more practically useful short term even though both of us agree that M-A:foreign strictly speaking is wrong. Then let's focus on actually removing autogen. Helmut
