Possibly, it was quite some time ago! And I have an imperfect memory. I'm fairly sure I would have put up any patches if I did need to change things; that is what I normally do. I'm trying to dig the source tree out of my archive just to verify. I would say that the binary there is pretty much completely redundant now. Any new busybox 'for android' should probably build against the Android C library, with the Android version of gcc etc. My contribution was done before any of the Android source was available, and was compiled with the codesourcery gcc compiler. (Note: Strictly speaking I really should have the source code for it irrespective of if I made any changes to the source code; rectifying that now.)
