Oh, that seems to have eluded me, sorry -- it's not uncommon that a patch submitter needs help with testing (external testing) on *some* platforms, beside his or her main platform(s) of interest. What's quite uncommon though is total untestability for the submitter; I admit I drew a blank there. What you mention would have been viable. Thank you for posting the patch, ultimately!
