Better still, feel free to break it down into simple fixes and feed it to Fabrice. The only thing that definitely isn't ready is the futex stuff -- we could merge set_tid_address, set_thread_area and the clone bits. And especially the QEMU_ASSUME_KERNEL thing. Could do with testing the CLONE_SETTLS bits too, and making sure CLONE_PARENT_SETTID and CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID are implemented. -- dwmw2
