Re: [PATCH 0/3] Some Coverity fixes from GRUB

[Darren Kenny <darren.kenny@oracle.com>]

Hi,

I've not heard anything on the first or third patches in this series, is
there any possiblity that these can be take in to gnulib?

Bruno has already taken patch 2 into the gnulib tree, thanks.

If there is anything more that is needed to get them in, please let me
know since we would like to be able to bring in the latest gnulib
version to GRUB, and remove these patches from the GRUB tree.

Thanks,

Darren.
