Unfortunately I ran out of cycles at the time.  Adding test cases seems
like it was the roadblock - I don't think I ever figured out how to
implement the needed build tests for this additional feature in chardev.
I'm not that strong of a C developer, unfortunately.

I haven't looked at picking this up in probably a year, so I don't even
remember if I was able to get *anywhere* with it.

I did end up using a patched build myself,  and it worked fine for what I
was doing which is probably why I didn't get back to it.

Sorry, I'm sure that's not the answer you were hoping for.  But the day job
takes priority ;)
