Today's rabbit hole:
* gitea broken due to sqlite.go update
* sqlite.go blocked by libsqlite3.go
* libsqlite3.go blocked by libc.go
* fix libc.go
* libsqlite3.go now blocked by upstream sqlite bug
* caused by "-Wl,-R" in shell scripts getting brace expanded when converted to tcl arrayTurtles.

Naturally, while I am trying to persuade Github to run #IllumOS, I have an IllumOS VM here that I can try stuff out on before sending changes to Github. Something about the stack of my custom keymap, #Karabiner, Mac OS, #VirtualBox, and IllumOS means that the Sun-derived OS really doesn't like my genuine Sun keyboard. It seems to get caps lock randomly stuck.
I have no choice but to use this keyboard because I don't hate my fingers. But I do hate all software.

My first suspect for a #login not supporting -- would be something with a 1980s history pre-dating standard #getopt, such as Solaris, which is ironic given that #inetutils has its only -- present in conditionally compiled code targetting Solaris.
#FreeBSD, #NetBSD, and #OpenBSD login all use getopt(), pervasive in these worlds for decades, as do the util-linux login (used by Debian et al.), and the #Illumos and #BusyBox logins.
#suckless login supports -- via ARGBEGIN.

Please boost this one if you can.
Anyone here a, or know a, GNU binutils wizard? ( #binutils #gnu )
I have software that depends on binutils honoring the the -z/--disassemble-zeroes option. My testing indicates that starting in binutils 2.41 (extending to 2.42) that option is ignored.
I have a downloadable test tarball that'll exercise the code, broken or not, available upon request.
This MIGHT be #illumos , but I tested binutils 2.38 on ubuntu-22 and it passed, so I'm doubting that!
