No. I made them work. It really wasn't that many changes. :)

I don't know if we had good instructions for this case or not. But something
like this would have worked.

assume your tree is named rtems-mine
tar xjf rtems-4.10.2.tar.bz2
diff -uNr rtems-4.10.2 rtems-mine >FILE.diff

That should have generated a single file with all the changes.

Cool! How is RTEMS on the Virtex 4?

Yes please. That would ensure I merged everything correctly.
