I don't think you need to hold these three patches; with them I was able to build your 'master'. I believe the problems I bumped into only exist in msysgit's 'devel' (or in your 'next', which msysgit/devel is based upon).

Yes. Apart from the slip-up with LIB_H, my upload-archive series should be unrelated to the issues I found here.
