NTDDK patch for xmingw-w32api-3.1

The original name of this patch in the colinux-20041024.tar.gz tarball is
"w32api-3.1.diff".  I suggest one of the following filenames (or something
similar) for inclusion in portage:

xmingw-w32api-3.1-ntddk.patch
xmingw-w32api-3.1-colinux.patch

Stefan - ownership is now yours due to overmaintaince ;-).
Comment 3 Stefan Jones (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-11-17 08:59:43 UTC
I have added the patch for 3.1 ; will not do so for 2.5 (as 3.1 is stable so no one will use 2.5 and just adds cruft to portage)

Thanks
