[avr-libc-dev] Please have a look at avr-libc patch #3750

Patch URL:

Almost unnoticed went that patch that has been contributed by Ted
Roth, at a time when he had already `retired' from the project.

My only concern about it is that it would constitute an API change for
the stdio API, so all users of the current API would have to change
their sources.  OTOH, we've always threated that API changes might
happen in the preamble of the stdio documentation:

http://www.nongnu.org/avr-libc/user-manual/group__avr__stdio.html

What do people think, is this an acceptable reason for an API change?

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
