As Peter said, makedev is directly compiled from its single source file in Buildroot's tree, so no way to patch it with the standard package infrastructure. However, your patch looks like it would provide an interesting feature that we want in Buildroot. Would you mind officially contributing your patch so we can apply it? Regards, Yann E.
