<damo22>I'm getting further with icedtea7
<damo22>i had to fix a SAX xml parser problem that was failing to generate some headers
<damo22>youpi: seems we are missing SA_NOCLDWAIT ?
<damo22>/part3/git/icedtea7/hotspot/src/os/posix/vm/os_posix.cpp:538:7: error: 'SA_NOCLDWAIT' was not declared in this scope; did you mean 'SA_NOCLDSTOP'?
<damo22> 538 | { SA_NOCLDWAIT, "SA_NOCLDWAIT" },
<damo22>if its something we dont need, i can remove it
<youpi>damo22: we are missing it yes
<damo22>youpi: this gets me to a linked libjvm.so for openjdk7 but i cant seem to complete the build https://github.com/icedtea-git/icedtea7/pull/2 i am discussing with gnu_andrew here: https://github.com/icedtea-git/icedtea7/issues/1
<damo22>but to make that even compile, i needed to bootstrap a working jdk6 (and ecj from old icedtea)
<damo22>s/jdk6/javac 1.6
<jab>youpi  I was thinking that you accepted an LLM inspired patch with this email:  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2026-07/msg00165.html
<sneek>Welcome back jab, you have 2 messages!
<sneek>jab, youpi says: the GNU project itself has discussions about AI contributions.
<sneek>jab, youpi says: Which AI submission are you thinking about? I don't remember including AI-generated code, only AI-inspired code, which is very different
<youpi>it is llm-inspired, possibly even llm-generated, but not significant, it's just three lines
<jab>that's why I said Samuel merged a "legally insignificant LLM generated patch."  At least I intended to say "legally insignificant."
