C11 might be slightly problematic in some platforms, but C99 is
currently widely available and has 99% of the interesting stuff...

happens to re-order some code and doesn't realize that they introduced a read

still... don't rely on complex solutions when simpler solutions are available.

Yeah, a lot of style comments and one worry about older toolchains. Are

Hello friends,
I've just released v0.0.4 of the Xorg testing ground kit, which is now
also supporting Illumos (OpenIndiana).

other distros (eg. Tribblix), as well as the commerial Solaris, but
that's a bit overreaching my

He's absolutely right: the current implementation relies on an

You might get more attention by mailing the xcb-specific mailing list,
as noted on https://xcb.freedesktop.org/ and in the xcbproto/README.md.
But then again, you may just find that there are so few developers left,
that there is no one who has both the knowledge and time to review

Hello friends,
I've just released v0.0.3 of the Xorg testing ground kit, which is now
also supporting OpenBSD 7.5.
As like with the other platforms, it automatically detects the host type
via uname and automatically selects OpenBSD as target platform (unless
explicitly configured otherwise).

Update:
There's no need for having an own copy of the scripts in each individual
driver repo anymore - all pulled from a central location now.
Here's an MR for putting this into `modular` repo. If it should go to
somewhere else instead, just let me know:

I have closed the merge request since this wasn't the problem: I made
a blunder in the directories passed as arguments. Since one was not
foudn (the script tests), if failed as it should.
For Meson with python and the rest (for xcbproto), I have debugged
several blunders (setting prefix instead of
