If yes, can it be also MFCed there?
In principle it is applicable, but the same file also has other changes in head which were not MFCd, so just MFCing this one commit does not make much sense. For example, the earlier cast fixes were part of a much larger commit by Pedro Giffuni, adding "experimental support for amdfam10/barcelona CPUs": http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=251212 Does it still make sense to backport such experimental changes to an old stable branch? Of course I could split off just the changes to emmintrin.h, and leave the others out, but then we would have a partial MFC. I'm not sure if that is the usual way of doing things... -Dimitry
