Hmm.. Nice.
Okay, I will have another look at patches and do this kind of investigation before sending it next time :) Its been fun going through these frameworks.
How do you want to proceed now? I mean, you will take the other patches (which don't play with function parameters) as is or want me to send a single unified patchset with all the pending patches that I have?
Thanks for your support :)
