For those reviewing these changes and looking through issues still open, my plan is to release a 2045 soon (within next month or three), but then again this release was meant to come out 2 years ago. So no promises.
My next changes are to complete and update share (there is a branch that brings all the latest features to Borland build and still works with Open Watcom, but needs some work for GCC-ia16, though the features are ported from current gcc version -- uninstall and related options, also smaller resident footprint) and update so sys is also a git submodule. GPT support may or may not be in the next release depending on how much time I have, but will likely only be for Open Watcom and GCC compiled kernels. A future change, possibly sooner than later is to change the build system to use gmake on all platforms and compilers for a single consistent build infrastructure. I am still open to other versions of make, but gmake so far seems the best fit to support Linux, Windows 32/64, and DOS building. The current build system with each compiler using its own make is very fragile and I waste more time than I care and causes more issues for others to build - the goal is reduce friction for anyone to build their own custom kernel (and that includes me when I haven't built it in a while or I update my development computer).
