Using patch -E indeed solves the problem. BTW, good to see that only 3 patches are left. In other news, I also tested your pathes on an i386 10-CURRENT installation (r243831 and everything seems to work fine. I had to change my plans a bit concerning a test on amd64 10-CURRENT. That will have to wait till a system reshuffle over here, taking place only after 9.1 is released. I hope this helps. Kind regards, Hans Ottevanger
