Overall good work! The main thing I want to see at
this point is
autodetection of BSD so that we don't have to manually apply the first
patch for all the others to work.
All,
not to take anything away from the good work done by Francois (thanks!!),
but I would like to propose we merge all the changes required for
building on BSD to the origin/master branch *after* the release of
v14.0.0 or at least after a separate branch for v14.0.0 has been created.
The reason for this proposal is to avoid to potentially introduce new
bugs so close to the finalization of v14.0.0 (don't forget that we are in
a soft-freeze state).
Opinions are welcomed of course.
Cheers
Michele
Given how trivial the patches are I'd say merge anyway; there's nothing
more complex than an ifdef added to the actual code and the build system
is tested every time the binaries are rebuilt on the nightly builds PPA.
