Now if my work was dropped I could see you saying something like that, but that's not the case.

No, just a shit load more time and effort and work from you and me and others that could go into more productive things, that's all.

The "party" was to celebrate three things:

1) You got yours in, well done.
2) He didn't get his in, well done to you.
3) The games and fighting and time wasting is over.

2 and 3 just got fucked.

By questioning his judgement in terms of stability of builds for existing projects using that port. By pointing out that I have users with thousands of dollars of hardware riding on this, and a clean track record of not killing engines (unlike myself and one user in particular LOL), and that I don't feel comfortable using his tools to present binaries to my users based on the quality of his work in the past, what I've seen of this patch, and the comments and concerns of the other mainstream binutils list guys. That's how.
