[PATCH 0/7] Resume breaking ABI

[Colin Harrison]

Hi,

Ooops...I meant probably OK for all compilers...not all fields.
K&R ANSI quotes stuff like...
"The ANSI standard makes fields even more implementation-dependent then did
the first edition."

I'm cross-compiling using gcc via MinGW for Windows...other compiler users
mileage may vary as bit-fields are not that common.

My patch is still only one line...and the compiler output should be checked,
I suppose, from an objdump that uses ClientRec?
