It's not clear to me why this was set to pending, so I'll try to cover most bases in this mail:
I assume the patch itself is fine!? We deploy it on every arch (Linux: amd64 arm64 armel armhf i386 powerpc, hurd-i386, kfreebsd-i386)
Authorship: The original author Mike (CCed in patch submission) is quite short on time, so I decided to bring this patch (and others that we have in Debian) here. The whole Debian packaging is LGPL-2.1+ licensed (except if we use 3rd party stuff, which isn't the case for this patch). See [1].
History of this patch: 1.7.45-1 add, Michael Gilbert [2] 1.7.54-1 temporarily disable, Michael Gilbert [3] 1.7.54-2 refresh and readd, Michael Gilbert [4] 1.7.55-1 rename, Michael Gilbert [5] 1.9.9-1 refresh, Jens Reyer [6]
Is this patch needed?
Related (fixed) build failures: The last successful build on kfreebsd-i386 without this patch was 1.7.41-1. There's no data for 1.7.42/1.7.43. 1.7.44 failed to build. With the patch 1.7.45 and following versions built. When the patch was removed temporarily 1.7.54-1 failed to build. Later versions with patch built again. A list of all build logs is available at [7].
I didn't run a regression test, nor can name the relevant commit that caused the failure (I assume it was a change in Wine).
If required I might verify if the patch is still needed today, but I'd have to apply for access to a kfreebsd machine first.
I hope this clarifies everything Greets jre

I saw you committed it yesterday, conditionally only if we have the header file. I'll keep that in mind.
Thanks a lot!
