Some combination of "git send-email", "git format-patch --stdout --attach 
origin",
"git imap-send", manually fixing "References", "In-Reply-To" and "To" headers,
moving the mails to the ‘outbox’ of the e-mail client, trying to
flush the outbox, which didn't do anything and opening the mails in the outbox 
and
sending them individually.

I'll resend the patches with "git send-email", as a v2 (but the content is
identical).

I was thinking of cross-compiling of cross-compiling for the Hurd.
The glib-or-gtk-build-system would need cross-building support as well,
but it's ‘merely’ a variant of gnu-build-system with two extra phases,
so that should be easy.

Greetings,
Maxime.
