<oriansj>Melg8[m]: I always encourage people to find and report bugs in all the tools used in bootstrapping as they must be robust and reliable.
<oriansj>So fuzz M2-Planet to your heart's content. However I must warn you that I have already fuzzed it for more than 24hours straight with AFL without finding anything. So anything you find will be of great interest to me.
<oriansj>stikonas: well it probably is possible to incorporate cd support into kaem-optional without adding too many bytes but there is one additional option which might work for live-bootstrap better.
<oriansj>I could make a hard-coded stub binary in only a handful of bytes that just cd into a known directory (say /stage0-posix) and then execs kaem-optional-seed with no options.
<oriansj>(or a specific .kaem file or with some environment if one wanted)
<oriansj>xentrac: yeah stikonas is correct the use of SYS_ioctl is in lib/m2/isatty.c which could possibly be removed if we never wish to run MesCC in interactive mode while bootstrapping.
<xentrac>cool, thanks :)
<xentrac>I think interactive use is important
<siraben>oriansj: ping on whether to rebase/merge blynn compiler
<siraben>The module stuff is quite valuable to have for future progress

<xentrac> https://www.crowdsupply.com/sutajio-kosagi/precursor is the thing bunnie is working on now. the post-novena

<Melg8[m]>oriansj: i've opened issues https://github.com/oriansj/M2-Planet/issues/17 - https://github.com/oriansj/M2-Planet/issues/21 , i've manually reduced inputs so they don't contain irrelevant elements.
<oriansj>siraben: rebase might be cleaner code-wise and that will be fine.
<oriansj>Melg8[m]: thank you for the bug reports. I think I have working commits that fix the first 2.

<Hagfish> https://github.com/features/issues
<Hagfish>looks like JIRA needs to lower their prices
<Hagfish>i don't know whether this new feature lets you manage tasks across multiple different repos
<Hagfish>i guess you can always make an issue include a link to the other repo
<Hagfish>if people here thought that a more structured collaboration process would be worth the overhead in terms of time spent, it's something to consider
