I opened a new pull request for this branch to encourage discussion on it: https://github.com/Xastir/Xastir/pull/20 If you try out the code, commenting on the pull request would be welcome. If you spot some horrid error in it, too, that would be a good thing to comment on. > >On Sun, Jan 28, 2018 at 12:14:39PM -0700, we recorded a bogon-computron > >collision of the <ru...@bogodyn.org> flavor, containing: > >> > >> I just experimented with fixing the preprocessor symbol so it actually > >> detects we're running with a newer GLIBC, and it made Xastir AX.25 > >> connections > >> broken, so this code that has never actually been enabled isn't in fact > >> correct.
