I put a gentoo ebuild that applies this patch in my gentoo overlay at http://github.com/drescherjm/jmdgentoooverlay instructions on how to use this overlay are in the wiki http://github.com/drescherjm/jmdgentoooverlay/wikis Or a user can just grab the ebuild and files from http://github.com/drescherjm/jmdgentoooverlay/tree/master/app-backup/bacula BTW, This has been tested and compiles on amd64.
