No problem :-) my changes are neither fancy nor general. They just served my
purpose at the time because my focus was on something else.

Will do.

I think you guys should know that the SH3 project I was working on has been
canned : some corpy business guy pulled the plug on our pending contract at our
customer's company  because he "didn't understand where that Linux thing could
possibly lead the company". So, effectively, I have definitely ceased my work on
Hitachi processors.

Sorry everybody, I really didn't expect that : some people just don't understand
what an opportunity Linux is, and how good and finalized the work Niibe-San and
everybody did with LinuxSH has become.

Take care, and good luck
