With dynamic loading enabled the function ctk_textentry_input_null() lives in the persistent core while the macro CTK_TEXTENTRY() is typically used in loadable modules. So ctk_textentry_input_null() needs to be dynamically resolved.
...
On Win32 dynamic resolving isn't done by patching the dynamically loaded segments. Rather the code generated by the compiler for accessing symbols declared with __declspec(dllimport) is implicitly modified to actually go through pointer dereferenciations. The dynamic linker only initializes this pointers.
But with the symbol ctk_textentry_input_null becoming a pointer to a function it isn't a constant anymore and so it can't be used as initializer element - and thus breaking CTK_TEXTENTRY().
So the only viable solution seems to stick to the inversally available NULL pointer on Win32. But if there's an ugly #ifdef <platform> necessary anyway than it seems resonable to classify ctk_textentry_input_null as the special case and therefore use #ifdef SDCC:
- It saves some bytes on all non-SDCC platforms
- Is matches the exsisting inline documentation

A new experimental network primitive called an 'announcement'. An
...
announcement is an (ID, value) tuple that is disseminated to local
area neighbors. An application or protocol can explicitly listen to
announcements from neighbors. When an announcement is heard, a
callback is invoked.
Announcements can be used for a variety of network mechanisms such as
neighbor discovery, node-level service discovery, or routing metric
dissemination.
Application programs and protocols register announcements with the
announcement module. An announcement back-end, implemented by the
system, takes care of sending out announcements over the radio, as
well as collecting announcements heard from neighbors.

Reverted CLOCK_LT to the previous version, which upon closer examination seems to be correct. The new version did not work correctly on the minimal-net platform.

Neighbor ETX should accumulate over retransmission timeouts;
...
Best neighbor has minimum sum of routing metric and neighbor ETX. Previously best neighbor prioritizes routing metric before neighbor ETX, which often causes a poor neighbor with a good upstream path to be selected.

Added logic for announcing that a network has a gateway to the outside world (with the function uip_over_mesh_make_announced_gateway()). The announced gateway sends a trickle message to the network, containing the address of the gateway. Other nodes will then know that packets destined to the outside world should go through the gateway node.
