The patch I submitted for this bug (606) is for the 1.2 tree, yes.  I have 
also been working on the 1.3 tree because it was convenient WRT scons work:  
1.3 work for FreeBSD has been to detect the OS type in scons and force 
 -D__linux__ on the build commands, rather than to hack the actual sources.  
This works for just about everything.  Hence my eager agreement that 
changing "#ifdef __linux__" in the sources to "#ifdef __nix__" is A Good 
Thing.

Roger that.
