@pulkomandy In general, people tend to be quite happy to accept patches to the FreeBSD tree that remove friction for other consumers of the code, unless they make life harder for FreeBSD.

I personally love to see code get into Haiku because of the high developer:user ratio. Haiku may have few users, but a very high proportion of them are capable of fixing bugs and even more are capable of writing helpful bug reports. That improves code quality.

Getting code into more popular platforms often has a far lower return on investment. If there are bugs, you'll just see a few hundred people saying 'it does not go!' and no one able to actually root cause the issues.

So, please do upstream patches that help keep the code remain the same between consumers! It means that your users are more likely to help you fix bugs that affect our users and everyone wins.
