Just an FYI for anyone making changes to the audit code that there are 2 test
suites, one from IBM as part of the LTP and one from HP here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/audit-test/
they should still pass at this point.
This patch was applied. Thanks! I needed to adjust the AM_FLAGS in libev for
PIC. There have been a lot of updates to svn today...anyone sending patches
might want to doublecheck that they are up to date.
Thanks,
-Steve
