You should be able to build the command line tools without svrcore. This fix should not affect the client builds but I'd like to get it in the client branch just to keep the trees in sync.

Can I get a review? For HEAD and client branch? The fix is pretty simple and should not affect the client builds, but I'd like to get the fix on the client branch just to keep them in sync - I'm a big fan of double checkins rather than attempt to merge at some later date.

I don't see that we need to keep the trees in sync - the point of the client branch that the mozilla products use is that it is stable and away from main c-sdk development. We should only be putting patches on the client branch that are required as major bug fixes (e.g. build failures/big problems) and only once its had some time on trunk where people have had time to test it and ensure there are no problems. Yes it means we may get some problems with merging at a later date - but that's one of the risks with a branch. The basic rule is anything that goes in for the client branch must go in on the trunk, but if it goes in on trunk it doesn't necessarily need to go in on the client branch. Additionally we need to be careful as the client branch may be used in releases (though admittedly I'm not quite sure how exactly releases work) so checkins may not be allowed all the time.

I agree with what you are saying, but we also need to have a plan for keeping the trees in sync, e.g., "merge (or reset branch tag) after each major release of TBird." I leave it to the application teams to say what makes the most sense, but we don't want things to drift apart for as long as they have historically (that adds more risk when a new branch is cut).
