HI Gary,

Hello,

I am hoping that someone might be able to answer a quick question. I currently develop on Mac OS X. As many people know there are certain problems related to building u-boot on this host platform because of header files like byteswap.h and others. I was going to work on patches to address this problem, until I noticed that Mark Frysinger apparently has already been attacking this problem.

My problem is I see reference to these patches on nabble that seem to indicate they were submitted to the u-boot mail list:

http://www.nabble.com/-U-Boot---PATCH--compiler.h%3A-unify-system-ifdef-cruf t-here-tt23789452.html#a24053101

Yet when I search the u-boot website, I see no reference to them. Is my assumption correct that these were indeed submitted or am I reading too much into this?

That was only three days ago - it just hasn't been integrated yet. We're in a merge window, so if the patch passes muster (and Mike has a wicked record in this) it will be mainline soon. Patience young Padawan... :)

Thanks,

Gary Carlson
