This is true.  Felix, you refuse to see (not read, apply, install)
patches.  That's really bad.  For example I don't see my patch to ninit.
(I don't look my logs last days).  I my opinion it's better to do:
  1) wget patch
  2) rm patch
  3) say public: this patch is bad.  I refuse to apply it.

BTW.  my minit.patch solves the problem Gernot described.

For me time functions in dietlibc are bad (example parsing tzfile).
I'll continue to use dietlibc.  I don't know anything better !!!
But dietlibc is not ideal.  It can be better.  The community try
to help this process (one more, other less).

Other exemple is alloc.c.  Before 2-3 yaers I posted one alloc.c.patch.
Say really, have you read it?  If you say YES, then very SORRY !!!

I write this letter with a great respect to you!  
Thank's to YOU and DJB I now a little from the real thinks!
