I am perfectly fine with you experimenting in experimental. I have a question regarding the patch, as you change generated *.inc files, can't you generate those in the rules file instead of in the patch? My experience is that if upstream isn't going to carry the patch it is hard to update the patch for files like for that every new upstream release. Also, I am not sure if we aren't already rebuilding all generated *.inc files in our current build process. I have stripped major blocks for our patches in the past, because they were totally unneeded as the file was (or could be) regenerated. Paul PS: I would have appreciated it when you would have committed this on a separate (experimental) branch.
