...and there's the irony. With it as a library included by BOARDLIBS in the board config file, it is only compiled if it is called for in the board's config.mk.

Yes, I am aware of this.

It seems like it would be overall a win to have more of a real library approach. I have not gone down that path hardly at all, however, and it is likely to have briers that I'm not aware of. It also would take time. :-/

But "more of a real library approach" still means that you *always* build the library, but some mechanism selects which files get compiled and archived in the libs.

Having said that, I don't have any real issue in applying wg's patch. It isn't a big deal and will match the rest of u-boot methodology. At the end of the day, it is a lot easier than converting everything to true libraries. ;-]

Right :-(

Best regards,

In C we had to code our own bugs, in C++ we can inherit them.
