Your proposed change at https://patchwork.buildroot.org/project/buildroot/patch/20260830181907.106154-2-alexander.sverdlin@gmail.com/ ? Sorry, I'm still not following you.

All we care is about keeping syslinux active: reacting to build issues, to new upstream releases, to patches being submitted against syslinux in Buildroot. Thanks!
