Hi Barath; thanks for looking into this.  I'm quite certain the amount
of code change would be sufficient to require copyright assignment
paperwork: if that's acceptable to you let me know and we can get the
process started.  Luckily it's become streamlined for many countries
and often doesn't require snail-mail paperwork anymore but it can still
be time-consuming, especially if your employer can assert rights to
your work and will need to sign off on the assignment.

As far as the compiler warning issue, I've fixed that locally but have
not pushed it.  Tonight when I get home I'll make an effort to clean up
my current local Git repository state and push it out.

Regarding the missing files these should be downloaded when you run the
"make update" operation.  If you're not following the instructions in
the README.git file to build from a Git checkout, please check there.

Cheers!
