#4 is a particularly distasteful tactic.
Excuse me, but who the Hell are you? I don't see you maintaining one
of the 68k-based ports. The main branch of the CVS tree is for
development. If the code doesn't compile for a nanosecond, that's
*too bad*.
As it is, there was no way for me to deal with the hp300 changes I
made without either using a mass of #ifdefs or a separate file, which
is simply not going to happen.
Minimally, the changes
to libkvm should have been coordinated with the m68k maintainers
so that situations like #4 wouldn't happen.
If there had been any coordination, `pt_entry_t' and `st_entry_t'
never would have been *removed* from the Amiga port in the first
place.
