Andreas,
Xiaofan is correct. I applied that patch a week or two ago. However, that
patch only affects gpvo, not gpasm or (IIRC) gplink. I will definitely apply
your patch or something like it sooner or later, but since I'm rather new to
this and you know more about the necessary changes, you might consider
comparing the patches and merging the changes into one patch (against the
latest CVS version, which already has the other patch applied). It may just
involve removing the gpvo-related changes from your patch, but I suspect
there's a little more to it than that. I'll still be reviewing the changes
before I apply them, so whether or not you merge the changes, you could
directly email me any notes or related background info if you want (call it
a favor).
About the next release, I'm in the middle of some messy changes involving
#defines and macro parameters, but I might go ahead and release 0.13.5 soon
and save those changes for another release. Several important changes have
been made since the last release, and that was almost a year ago besides. I
believe many gputils users don't check the CVS repository and would
appreciate a new release.
I copied you directly this time since I'm not sure if you're checking the
gnupic list, but I'd recommend subscribing to it ####@####.#### if
you haven't. I can forward you Xiaofan's message if you missed it.
