FWIW, all I've really been doing is defending the idea that some people want the code to run on a 386, however poorly. But for the most part, the people who would use that approach aren't bothered by not having 386 support there by default. BTW, for the person who pointed out that the userland is 486, and won't run on 386, anyway, without everything rebuilt: I'm pretty sure that's not true since the compiler upgrade, since the new compiler can't do CPU optimization correctly, without puking things out. 8-). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
