Maybe but that is not relevant to this conversation really.  Also it
might be due to I don't have time to maintain libobjc, spu and still
get my day work done.

To this list.  Yes and libobjc patches don't go to this list  They
goto gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org.  Maybe that is why I did not replay to
them.

So I don't see what you expect from me, to read this list for libobjc
patches when they don't belong.  And from the sound of it, you did not
know where upstream was anyways.

No, it relies on ELF behavior (weak symbols are elf not GNU linker
issues).  Seriously it now sounds like you don't understand any of the
code at all or any of the OS.  This now makes wonder if your patches
were right in the first place.
