I'm pretty confident that it is not fixed. You should be able to duplicate the bug on any system from sources after Feb 19th, 2000 I think. Just set USA_RESIDENT=YES in your /etc/make.conf, start sysinstall and exit right away. check /etc/make.conf and you'll find USA_RESIDENT=NO. I'm currently working on a 'better' patch... if you are interested. - Tim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
