Bastian, thank you both for your patience and persistence.
It would be best if you make sure the ports appear in upstream CVS
first. Otherwise once they implement them with a different
implementation IDs, the databases created with "official" firebird
engine will not be openable on Debian on the same architecture and
vice versa.
As long as I see, they have s390x (for the upcoming 2.5 release) using
implementation ID of 78 (your patch has 79) and no implementation ID
for s390 (your patch has 78).
How different are s390 and s390x? Are the pointer sizes different or
native integers or alignment rules? Is the s390x port enough for
Debian?
You may want to see
http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-2559?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:cvs-tabpanel
for the upstream bug report about s390x.
Their CVS is browsable at
http://firebird.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/firebird/firebird2/
Lastly, if you are interested in co-maintaining Firebird, help is much
appreciated :)
