Sure, there are still some pieces which remain unsync'd due to time pressures and the fact that they weren't clearly stale enough to warrant attention until we'd already run out the clock for Jaguar, but the divergence was *significantly* reduced with Mac OS X 10.2 and it's everyone's intention to reduce it far further. I have "sync with FreeBSD 4.7" as my top priority for the next release. - Jordan On Sunday, September 29, 2002, at 11:53 AM, David O'Brien wrote: > On Sat, Sep 28, 2002 at 09:55:01PM -0700, Eric Melville wrote: >>>> Log: >>>> Add getopt_long(3). >>> >>> Why? >>> >>>> Sponsored by: Apple >>> >>> Apple actually tasked you with doing this? >> >> Absolutely.
