Interesting. I wonder how true "A set of convoluted shell scripts that
are slow to anger and impossible to debug." is. I would think that at
least part of automated building/testing of this would require gcc and
something a bit more data-structure-fluent than shell, but I Could Be
Wrong.
I might try this if it ever gets less hectic/annoying at work. I've
successfully fixed one bug in a 3rd-party kernel module, after all.[0]
I'd rather not bother a human with kernel-newbieish mistakes if
possible, so I hope most of this challenge doesn't require someone at
this organization to do stuff.
[0] The module maintainer wrote a better patch 24 hours later. Well,
he had much more experience with the code, so that's no surprise.
