I am not yet sure how to do that, but I would assume that it would still involve using conditional compilation code like I mentioned.

Exactly. "configure --enable-passthrough" defines a macro which is then used in conditional compilation.

Using conditional compilation alone does not work on systems not providing the required features but not excluded by the condition.

I hate conditional compilation, so I hope the results make it worth the trouble.


But my patch will not do anything different unless the user actually uses an option in the ddrescue command line. Just like --direct must be manually selected, so would --scsi-passthrough and --ata-passthrough,

I expected it to work this way.
