Hello Maarten,

all patches are in well formed state (at least according to my linux
kernel contributions experience) in the tracker related to the bug

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100599&aid=1767885&group_id=599

I can copy them to patches/features tracker, but I think, that duplication
can cause only problem with finding latest version and related comments.
There are some basic tests but I there could be written more tests
for additional fixed bugs by spending time on simplification
of complex TinyOS tests.

The copy of patched SDCC sources is there

http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz/~pisa/mcs51/sdcc-2.9.5-091218-pi1.tar.gz

I hope, that you will found time to review my effort and help
integration of the bug fixes and enhancements.

We have to have keep macros burden in our uLan.sf.net code even after
project rearrangement and managed it to compile with mainline
version of SDCC because we do not want to use features for which
there is no guarantee, that will be supported in future. But I feel
quite unhappy about that.

So I hope that that integration of these quite needed fixes
would not drop from your queue.

Best wishes,
