Thanks,

To tell the truth I was skeptical of this patch as well.  But I figured I
could send out the patch and see what kind of feedback it would get.  I
was expecting compiler actually, but wasn't sure exactly where.

So this is the best feedback I could have expected.  Thanks.

I am using gcc with newlib 'or1k-elf-'.  I also have a musl, linux,
target compiler.  I will look into that.
