Hi Jerome,If you're saying that your patches used to work and they now break, do file a bug about it. Others on the list have mentioned using [declare] for this purpose-- I never have but it's a reasonable use case.
Using [declare] in abstractions has never been an encouraged practice, The 0.41 helpfile includes this warning:
'WARNING: you might want to avoid putting "declare" statements inside abstractions, as their effects will extend to the calling patch. As of version 0.41, "declare path" is ignored inside abstractions, although, probably unwisely, "-stdpath" takes effect (on the calling patch as well as the abstraction.)'
So basically [declare] only was "allowed" in a toplevel patch.
I think it is was wise, that the confusing side effect of [declare] "extending to the calling patch" was removed.
