I think toybox already have that.

Ok, re-triaging this. (Sorry if I'm a bit woozy right now, been sick all week.)

The strings and mdev stuff are moot, mke2fs needs a restart. (I should also move toysh.c and login.c into pending, they need work.)

Your logger is cleaner, but I mentioned the issues with both last message.

What were the license terms on the test.c you derived yours from? It looks like a lot of people touched it over the years.

The two portability ones... Hmmm, I'm torn. I gave a talk at CELF last week about my plans going forward:

And it boils down to "I want to support android via musl, not sure how much I care about OSX at all at this point". I have a test environment for glibc, uClibc, and musl. I can get a test environment for bionic (and should prioritize that).

I can't get a mac test environment easily because it's proprietary. Even if I went into a store and bought a copy (which I haven't), running it under qemu is fiddly due to hardware anti-circumvention crap:

(It's basically the way everybody knows decss, everybody knows the blue ray key leaked, but there's still enough looming legal threat to prevent upstream packages from cleanly integrating this knowledge.)
