I have attached the patch file. You are right I did cut and paste it from this file.

Thanks, but I think your Thunderbird broke the patch, probably because you copy-pasted it into the mailer and it clipped long lines.
I recommend to use 'svn diff > foo.patch' in your svn tree (easier IMO, and that already produces patches in the -u format) and then just attach that file to the mail.

We should make sure this doesn't break any other distros / compiler versions. Do all reasonably new gcc/ld versions know about '--build-id'?

I cannot parse this changeset completely, but won't this break the code for other distros or boards?
Please resend the 'svn diff' output so we can test this on some non-Fedora distros.
Thanks, Uwe.
