The core code is extracted from a current CF patch, so I think in principle it's OK. I haven't looked at it in detail, but regarding the test code I'm not sure why there's a .control file, since this isn't a loadable extension, not why there's a test_oat_hooks.h file. > The majority of the patch is regression testing code, stuff which doesn't get > installed.
