Great!

Send to the "patches" mailing list, unless the patches are
prohibitively large. afaik the upper limit on mail size for patches is
big.

If it is OK with you, I will put your summary of steps required into
our source tree as doc/FAQ_QNX. If you have access to the source tree
you can make changes from there, or if not I'll mail to you the file
as I've committed it and if it is OK you can make changes from that
version.

How would you suggest I mention it in the "ports list"? Since you need
to patch the sources, I guess it isn't "fully supported", but does
"needs minor patches" describe it correctly?

Thanks.

- Thomas
