Ahha got it now.
Note that you patchset is applicable to rev 2243, just need little quilt magic.
AFAIK this only cosmetic changes in patched files. (i'm not programmer so
can't provide more correct information).
I'll see tonight or tomorrow if current kicad builds/works OK with
those patches and will report back.
Have you any suggestions how to test functionality implemented in patches?
