This is ok (no reverse patch message). ./configure, make, make > install are ok, but again make installtest aborts with an error. I tried just using my patch (i.e., the second one) hoping the changes from b20 to 1.1.4 would have obsoleted the original patch. My findings were that conf.sh failed during the mmap tests. So, I concluded that the first (i.e., original) patch was still needed.
