No I didn't fix with patches but I just pulled a git snapshot from upstream which Kelson said is ready for release but blocking because of some minor changes needed to other platforms IIRC. If its okay can you review this?. Also there is couple of problem like Android source included in upstream tarball which I filtered out as Kelson said it will not be dropped from the source.
