Its where I ended up placing some API I tested a long time ago when I wanted to test it in userspace, and provide the unit test in userspace (for my linker table patches). > Now we just have to start the race to see who can tweak the kernel build > system to produce an output library first :) Should be relatively easy if the tools directory used. Yes, there is an inherent risk of duplication, but that was decided long ago. Luis
