Thanks. However I'd rather let finalize the 1.1.4 integration (the
patches I just submitted will do) and then to upgrade to 1.1.5.

Another thing in your patch, and I was asked not to do so, is PAM
configs in the fs skeleton. I moved them to the Buildroot package
area, and honestly I would not provide any more configs with Buildroot
itself. For example, in my project PAM config for login does not
resemble the standard one at all, etc. these configs are just for
compatibility with PAM-less setup.

Sure, once 1.1.4 is done.

Thanks for testing. The patchwork entry you mentioned also captures
the discussion we had regarding non-standard use of C flags: the way
Makefile is written in v86d does not capture them from the build
environment, and they have to be pushed harder down via redefinition
of $(CC) rather than via an environment variable.

I thnk eventually I'll try to reintroduce the v86d patch: may I take
your e-mail as a supporting vote? ;)

Thanks.
