Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] [V2] Replace NT_PRXFPREG with ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE #define
Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2007 12:35:41 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <470EDD7D.8010509@au1.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <470ED8BA.4010503@au1.ibm.com>
Sorry for the patch noise but please disregard this patch - a line is longer than 80 characters and I'd hate to be brought up on that...
V3 will be the perfect version then :)
Thanks and apologies again!
Mark.
