Hi Jacek,
These are functions that I missed when revieweing Gecko headers. I will
probably change their calling convention in the next Gecko release.
In that case, why not change the calling convention now? The matrix
of possible configurations is much simpler that way.
Right now, we have:
current Wine + current gecko = crash
By changing the calling convention in Wine, we have:
Wine<= 1.3.23 + current gecko = crash
Wine 1.3.24-?? + current gecko = no crash
Wine ?? + current gecko = crash
Wine ?? + new gecko = no crash
Wine<= 1.3.23 + new gecko = crash
By doing a new gecko release, we have:
any Wine + current gecko = crash
any Wine + new gecko = no crash
There is 1:1 mapping between Gecko and Wine version. You won't be able
to use current Wine with the new Gecko nor future Wine with current
Gecko. And doing Gecko release is quite not that simple to do it for
such a minor change.
BTW, the current plan is to do the new Gecko release together with
Firefox 6 release, which is about 6 weeks from now. The first beta
version should be out in a week or two, depending on how Firefox beta
will behave.
