Mark, do you have any comment here? Would it be > for the best to revert here and apply instead to 7 forest? Adding patches directly to the tree is fine with me. My only hesitation was my own confusion since the default configure/make setup doesn't pick up a patched forest. You don't have that issue with patches, which are directly applied. If we are going for a complete forest setup it might make sense to also add the tapsets and testsuite directly there. I'll try and figure it all out again and also port the existing patches to the forest. Hints and tips appreciated. Cheers, Mark
