I got a bit ill in between... The patches aren't yet merged (I'm
sorry, really!), but a simple pull will always work.

However, it makes a difference if you've locally checked-in your
changes. You can (and you should) do that, preferrably on a topic
branch. Branches in GIT are cheap and a real pleasure to work with.


As a side note, the NetBSD guys did some great work during the last
weeks. They worked on the compiler to be able to create PIC code
again. Needed for shared libs.  They also updated the whole VAX
backend and technically, it's now mostly up-to-date with all new and
fancy stuff that had been done to the major targets during the last
years of development. Only CC0 conversion still is to be done...

MfG, JBG
