You are over reacting. We're also talking about *2* patches before the "cheap trick" of enable at the end. The only alternative to the "cheap trick" is *1* patch, which no one wants. There really is a minimum amount of code that is required before *anything* will compile. We're not talking about applying anything at this stage. We're talking about patch review, and making the pieces small enough to actually review. I assume that Taylor and the revng guys are coordinating the actual meat of the port. I assume those will be presented in reviewable chunks, each of which will compile. Only when we see all of those will the whole thing be applied. r~
