I agree. > Which architectures did you test? Often, x86 is a bad choice here and > we'd need something cross (arm/mips/ppc) to ensure it really is doing > the right things.

We've been running with the previous version of the patch with our code for a while but now I look more closely that solution didn't have anywhere near as wide an impact so I'll switch us over to using these patches. That will runtime-test a few real mips and arm targets (and even x86 and x86-64 to a limited extent) but only with our customised set of packages. > A post to the architecture list is probably needed so everyone knows > this is happening (or at least being considered). I'll do that once I've finished this round of testing. Would it be best to just post a general overview or the complete patch series? > I do worry how much of meta-oe may be affected by this. We don't use meta-oe. I could have a look at trying some builds over the weekend. Luckily any breakage will be easy to fix, but that doesn't really help if hundreds of packages are affected! Thanks.
