Hi,

About your comments:

1) I used macros around sa->flags where it was needed. Not all checks for that 
set of flags use information if it is transport mode. As for macro 
WITHOUT_TRANSPORT_VERSION, it was set only for checks that required information 
from set of flags without taking into account new transport flags -> I can set 
it in more places (like initialization stage), but I do not see a point of 
that, besides being uniform.

2) WITHOUT_TRANSPORT_VERSION is a macro which masks sa->flags as they were 
before change. It cuts newly proposed flags for transport mode, so behavior of 
switches, where such flags were used before as variable, is unchanged. I will 
provide a comment to the macro.

I will provide patch as soon as possible (probably tomorrow).

Kind regards,
Mariusz Drost.

modes

Hi Marius,

Could you please send the updated patch soon, so that they can be applied 
before RC1.

Thanks,
Akhil
