Dear Kai,

Good. I simply did not see any recent comment from you on the list, or bugzilla.

Sure, no problem. There are many code-paths in the compiler that are only taken 
on a subset of targets, so noone is implying that you should have tested it on 
all targets before committing.

I’m afraid I don’t understand what you mean by that. I was only saying that if 
this part of the patch is only exercised on darwin, and it fails there, we 
might want to change it.

Could you give a link to the patch? I’m not finding it. Has it been tested on 
darwin? If not, I can do it.

If there is a patch submitted that fixes the issue, of course reversion is bad. 
I was unaware of that.
