Fine, see the next mail.

Quite good. I don't build with all packages enabled, but my Beagleboard
SDK [1] builds without problems. The same for my weather station [2]
which uses Dockstar hardware (Marvell Kirkwood) and a NSLU2 (Intel IXP)
as the second one.

The only exception is the creation of an ubifs image, i.e.
host-mtd-utils. I have something working in [3] but I want to push that
mainline first. If they don't accept it, I can put a large number of
required headers in my elf-h-compat (which I would rename in that case)
so that the changes in mtd-utils are minimal.

Kernel 3.4 should build without any additional patches as Andreas'
changes [4] got accepted and my printf/echo fix [5] now also is
included.

I hope I have some time in the next weeks to provide a small Howto for
ptxdist on Mac OS. Thanks for accepting all the patches and the feedback
on them, BTW.


Regards,
Bernhard
