I'll try, normally it shouldn't be an issue.
Your patch works fine, I was able to run through the compile process. I
only got some warnings now;

*** Warning: Linking the executable ipmiping against the loadable module
*** libfreeipmi.so is not portable!

Anyway, the checkout seems to work;
gentoo root # file /usr/local/sbin/fish
/usr/local/sbin/fish: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1
(SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.4.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not
stripped

I have some other questions, but will ask them in a separate thread later.

Thanks for your excellent and quick support !
