What you are writing is really lowering the confidence level, first
Andrew is the author of that patch, and second "just compiling" and
pretending this fixes a problem when it does not is not quite what I
would expect.

I don't have a problem helping you find the solution or the right fix
though, even if it is not my patch, but please get the author and actual
problem right so we can move forward in confidence, thanks!
