Is the change on libbb/loop.c which you commited in 2005/1/3 effective
really?
The __GLIBC__ macro and __UCLIBC__ macro are defined in
feature.h in glibc source, so the change may not be effective.
If you want to check this with __GLIBC__, feature.h header is needed.
Some architectures(e.g. PPC series) need to include linux/posix_types.h
in stead of asm/posix_types.h, so the patch which is attached with
this mail include <linux/posix_types.h>.
with a quick conversion you will see that 132608 == 0x20600
so noticed that the elif will never be matched !
Apparently there was already a try to modify this in CVS which
was reverted (it was plain wrong).
I don't know when __kernel_old_dev_t is needed, but with a 2.6.7
or a 2.6.8 this is __kernel_dev_t wich is needed.
I corrected this with the following patch but maybe older 2.6
still need __kernel_old_dev_t ?
I think this should be corrected before 1.0.
Thanks

with 2.6.x asm/posix_types.h, which has done singularly evil thing
by yanking __kernel_dev_t and renaming it. The loop interface was
really poorly designed in the first place. The new 64 bit loop
interface looks to be somewhat less horrible, too bad it is only
present in 2.6.x kernels.
