As I understand it, the patch provides support for interrupts, which, at least from my glance over the code, are necessary only for LNP stuff. (Markus, feel free to correct me on this.) So, it will compile with your "old" cross compiler and provide (...) (25 years ago, 15-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Don't know much about the compiler differences (except that I thought most of the 1.1.2->2.9.5 differences would mainly cause compile-time failures, not run-time) but I have compiled every legOS thing I've done (including 0.2.1) with 1.1.2.
