Re: Bug of cvtenc (Re: ANN: GNUstep base/make Version 1.7.4)

Hi,

 I apologize that I didn't notice the second patch you sent, which works 
for me.
 We are talking about different patches after your second patch.
 I'm wordering why the patch works for you, and re-check the maillist 
archive,
 then I found the second patch.
 Sorry for wasting your time.
