Alternatively if you have shell access to git.qemu.org then I can commit just the MMIO accessor changes to SVN trunk now and then with a manual update to the OpenBIOS git mirror I can re-send the signed pull request with updated binaries? I've deliberately held off applying patches to OpenBIOS SVN trunk in case this was the preferred method as I'm keen to be able to bisect down to this particular change on SPARC64. ATB, Mark.
