Call me stupid, but I couldn't figure out how to download the git branch using git (when I did, I downloaded the 4.5 tree), but I did see it on the web inferface. I downloaded today's snapshot from the git-5 branch; I hope that's the same. I still get the same error however.

The patch succeeded and compilation went, except for pkg.m4 which is easily resolved, without errors that I can see. I still get the above results however. > Thanks for tests and the reporting! NP.
