Hi,
I build iPerf3 for IPFire, (for reasons look here: http://forum.ipfire.org/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=15498) and was told  that i should submit changes to the mailing list.

Here is a patch with all changes:

I do not know if i do all right, in the moment I am not so familiar with git and patches.

In addition I have a question. When I build iPerf 3 I run into a bug (see https://github.com/esnet/iperf/issues/337). I modified the source package and now iPerf 3 build. There are c flags which are incompatible. What is the better style to modify the source package and use this source package or to create a patch (what I try but I fail) and use the original source package and patch it during the build process? The source package what I use in the moment could be find here: http://forum.ipfire.org/download/file.php?id=1853
