The problem with patches going elsewhere is that they can, as you note, get lost. Perhaps we should investigate a stricter codingstd policy in the week pre-release, or split up any codingstd tests that are actually build breakers on certain platforms into a strict subset we can run by default. (Running the whole suite is overkill. Running the C++ comments is not.) > I also encountered two trivial fixes today that I needed. I've appended > the patch below.
