Well not much work. I asked Sebastian if you knew
and he said you did. Didn't fix it. :)

I figured as much since I hadn't heard much from you either.
I'm still suffering backlog from the move, spider bite, and
the class. I still am also not used to the new office. Yesterday
I spent 20 minutes looking for why a board wouldn't load
executables and then remembered I had only set the board
on my desk -- hadn't put a network cable on it yet. LOL!
Looks like we are heading for a new spin of the 4.10 tools
soon.
+ drop - DMISSING_SYSCALL_NAMES from configure.host
+ ALIGN issue not being 8 on SPARC
+ inttypes.h warning
Oh well.
