Hi Cirilo That was indeed my problem. I had downloaed the patch earlier, and did not notice the ther files. I applied and built successfullt after I followed the instrucitons in the README.
I don't have much to comment on it, I think one needs to try it out on a real design to tell if it is any good in practice. I guess it would be.
