Hi Werner,
I'm +0 for applying the patch to CVS, since it's an additive feature and doesn't
hurt any existing core bricks of the gwlib.
The calls should be POSIX.1 compliant and portable hence I guess.
Werner, could you do me a favor and resend the patch in a single file as mail
attachment please. This ensures we don't get truncated end of line chars etc,
which is a mess to correct by hand while patching ;)
And thanks a lot for contributing.
Stipe
