I wasn't able to test this change on 5.1 as our 5.1 machine apparently
stopped working a while ago. I did some testing on 5.2, and then
committed your patch.
Just a couple of additional remarks:
- I fixed a missing space at the end of your comment:
/* Your comment should have too space after the dot. */
- Would it be much work for you to change the MIME type used for
your patches? Right now, it's application/octet-stream which
makes it harder to read and reply to.
Would you mind letting us know when the BFD part is checked in, and
we'll add a NEWS entry for this new feature.
Thank you,
