Hi Bob,

Awesome, thank you!   I did need to add QNX ifdefs in the 
os_specific/service_layers C code, but that was it - I don't think 
that's what you mean by the actual modules, though, and there were 
already many such ifdefs in there.   Otherwise it was, just like you 
say, adding a new acqnx.h header with the corresponding acenv.h entry 
and Makefile changes only.

Would you prefer a patch sent to this mailing list, or a pull request on 
github?

Thanks,
-Will
