Patch Set 3:
Hi,
we (specially I am) are a bit picky on granularity of changes. Could you move the .gitignore part to a different patch please. In terms of OSX did you try to run make check? We hijack/overload/interpose some of the "libc" symbols in our tests and this fails on OSX because in OSX the symbol look-up is per DSO.
There is an option in the OSX linker to disable it but I never made up my mind if:
* we skip these test on OSX * force the linker to be more like GNU/Linux and FreeBSD
Do you have an opinion?
