That is a very bad development. We want these patches to be used
downstream for 4.6.1. For post 4.6.1 we hope to implement support for
multibyte character sets by wrapping relevant functions.

Jindrich, I have asked you repeatedly to revert from the use of HEAD for
the pre 4.6.1 releases. Please, please, please could you use a PRE
tarball for the development rpms for Fedora Core and Red Hat Enterprise
Linux? I've put a lot of effort to get these patches from Red Hat (Jakub
Jelinek) and SuSE (Vladimir Nadvornik) synchronized and I would hate it
to see that effort wasted. Thanks.

Leonard.
