Sorry for the grumpy tone. I was just a little taken aback that such massive changes were necessary, but since they are, I'm glad you've made them :-). I've applied this with very slight modifications as #28367. I modified vms_split_path() so that it does not try to pass around thread context; as far as I can tell, it does not manipulate any global data, so there's not much reason for it to do that, and now it can also be used in other places that do not have thread context handy. The only other change was that I restored a lib$getdvi call in encode_dev() that your patch deleted -- just looks like PF4 got whacked one time too many. If there is any more documentation available about VTF-7, I'd appreciate pointers. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
