Hi David,

I've posted just the one patch that is adding the exports now.
Leaving those exports out was certainly an oversight by the dtc developers.

Not adding them would mean that libfdt.h contained prototypes for functions which don't exist. This is something that is really annoying to have as a developer and I'd prefer if we didn't subject our devs to something like that - and on embedded where everything worth doing takes ages to do to begin with.

That said, long term it would be nice if the dtc developers made a new release. So I've also posted to their mailing list asking them to do that.

In the mean time, let's carry this one patch.

Thanks for your contribution too :)

Cheers,
  Danny
