Re: diff /usr/include/endian.orig.h /usr/include/endian.h > endian.h.diff


Pedro,


first of all, did you read http://cygwin.com/contrib.html?  Especially
the "Before you get started" section.

For this patch, given that it is just a bunch of rather obvious
defines, I don't think we have to treat the patch as significant.

However, please don't use _BSD_SOURCE.  The newlib/Cygwin headers are
not set up like the Linux headers and the big bunch of definitions from
/usr/include/features.h are not available so far.  The _BSD_SOURCE
define is not honored or set anywhere right now.

What you can do is to use _POSIX_SOURCE.  So, if you're going to use
#ifndef _POSIX_SOURCE instead, and if you're creating a ChangeLog entry
in the correct ChangeLog entry format (see the ChangeLog file), then
I guess we can check it in.


Thanks,
Corinna
