Hello Everyone,
My name is Michael, I am a CompE student looking to participate in GSoC 2026. I am particularly interested in the NASA eefs and the Reimport shell commands projects.
My account here is new and it’s blocking me from adding the patch attachment even with a .txt postfix added so I will just paste the text here, I am happy to send the patch file on request.

I daily drive Arch Linux, and if you are a rolling release Linux distro user, there were a couple rough patches on python versions and gcc versions that caused build and testing failures. If anyone needs help feel free to reach out.
The main choke points that required a workaround for me were in first compiling the OS, I needed to create a fake campiler executable that injected -Wno-error=discarded-qualifiers at the very end of the command line and force RSB to use it.
Also, I needed to make a venv for the testing and pip install telnetlib-313-and-up to get it running.
Thanks guys, hope to work with everybody soon.
