Committed.  (I'd already done the work massaging my tree to commit this
when I noticed that it didn't have Jim's vote, and I thought it did.
I committed anyhow, sorry.)

This patch is useless without knowing what version of the server it
applies to.  Submitter should resubmit with a "diff -u" patch or tell
us what it applies to ... 1.2.4 is my guess.

As I mentioned last status, this isn't a patch, it's a proposal, so I
can't commit it :)  Lars are you working on this one?

I'll implement the concept then.

I think Paul committed this one... I gave it +1.

I think even Brian gave it a +1 :)  If we know what people consider it useful
for maybe we can make a better decision.

Right, it'd be nice to see another patch that lets OS/2 compile, preferably
separated into the "safe" stuff which we can commit, and the "unsafe" stuff
like changing #!/bin/sh to #!somethingelse which is requird to get things
working under OS/2.  The latter would be something that we could include
in the source in os/emx/src.patch, and include a README.OS2 indicating that
OS2 requires a patch first to get working.
