@jhol I believe that @zfigura's suggestion to just merge the first four patches is in-line with what AJ has previously said. If I had to summarize his comments, I would say that they are to:
- move the code out of ports and into file (already done)
- submit the initial request for the support of one key platform
(Linux, first four patches) 3. make sure the "key platform" support is extensible (already done) 4. submit additional requests for each additional platform, one at a time If you want to add a "fallback" behavior (which I think is reasonable), then I would suggest that that be treated as an "additional platform" after you have the initial support in place. Others might have a different opinion.
That sounds like an nice easy path forward.
One practical question. How do I make the test case `todo_wine` in some cases, an not in others? Do I just have to comment out the test? Or is there a trick to indicate that inconsistency between plaforms is expected?
