I've provided hooks intended +to make it simple to support other compilers just by overriding make +variables on the command line: if you need to do something more +drastic than this to get your compiler working, please tell me. + +If your platform doesn't support static binaries at all, you're on +your own (and should whine at your OS vendor, as this is nuts). + +We try to stick with rsync release code, but apply security patches +when necessary. |
