Would something like Coccinelle which lets you do semantic patching across an entire codebase be useful ? http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/ There's a nice rundown of its use with the Linux kernel by Val Aurora, the Linux filesystem developer, on LWN here: http://lwn.net/Articles/315686/ That's from January, so there have been fixes since then (last release was at the end of July). cheers, Chris -- Christopher Samuel - (03) 9925 4751 - Systems Manager The Victorian Partnership for Advanced Computing P.O.
