While Magnus might take a look anyway, in general we'll all be taking a
break from review until January 15th, when the final CommitFest for this
version starts. That way everyone has some time to work on their
development instead of looking at other people's. You should also be
aware that if there are any problems, you may discover the patch just
gets put to the sidelines until the next version. We're trying to
encourage people to submit major patches *before* the final CommitFest,
so that there's time to do a round of feedback on them followed by major
cleanup before they get committed. Unfortunately, something as big was
a new platform port could easily find itself postponed until the next
major version--it's not something development is going to wait for if it
doesn't get finished up before the CommitFest is over. You're basically
at Magnus's mercy though, if he wants to dedicate enough time to get it
done that certainly can happen.
