Thread-topic: [Xen-API] [PATCH] Makes the allocator more robust by enabling allocation of 0 bytes
Hi Matthias,

Unfortunately the patch names don't survive the 'hg email' -- they all appear 
to be named 'xen-api-libs.hg' or something :)

I think I have the patches which apply to stdext/ -- perhaps I'm just missing 
mlvm-refactor. Could you resend?

Thanks,
Dave
