Follow-up Comment #6, bug #52518 (project gnustep):
What makes the patch large is the gazillion configure scripts. If you filter
them out it should be fairly easy to review. There are also many duplicated
configure checks and even macro definitions that the patch cumulates at one
place. I can split it in 56 chunks if you want, but it'll certainly take much
more time to review and test them one by one.
You can also test it on all other platforms you have access to, it just takes
time. If anything is broken I'm confident I can fix it quickly.
GNUstep Make doesn't support out of tree builds only if you follow the usual
practice for writing GNUstep makefiles. But if you use autoconf to generate
them and the vpath GNU make directive you get VPATH builds out of the box and
without too much effort. It's a matter of good practice to #include
<config.h> but it's entirely up to you whether to follow it.
