I just had a look at your mail, and noticed that you just sent an URL
to an external tarball. Could you please attach the patch directly in
a mail to the list or add it to the bugtracker (bugs.buildroot.net),
then I'll review it this coming week.

Not quite, the GPL says that you have to make sources available
whenever you distribute binaries - But contributing your changes to us
is ofcourse preferred.
