Hi,
This patch:
2022-05-25 2022-06-01 b251bb7630 eal/ppc: undefine AltiVec keyword
vector @Thomas Monjalon
Looks like an incompatible change? Commit message says so too:
"This is a compatibility breakage for applications which were using
the keyword "vector" for its AltiVec meaning."
The first one looks like but I don't think we should pick up the
second one for the LTS branches?
Kind regards,
Luca Boccassi
