Why did you commit that?



First because it was not up to date, I have not added it...
For something weird plaforms it is nice to have it instead having to get it's content.


Hmm, portable.h is generated from portable.h.in on platforms that
have ./configure scripts at the first place.
All other platforms simply don't use it, but the file exists so
that we don't need extra #ifdef's

Agreed.



Right... That is a pitty to break Netware - I will add the file as portable.h.sample and restore the old one -


What would be the purpose of that sample? I mean, it is generated,
so each platform has more or less unique one.

If the configure can not generate the platform.h from platform.h.is,
what's the purpose of the configure at the first place?

Well... If configure fails it is more easy to hand write a platform.h from a platform.h.sample then from nothing. The other reason could be cross compiling but the Makefile are missing if configure fails.
