I can indeed. I think the rest of that conversation went into private mail, before I posted a confirmed fix and justification the following month, beginning in this thread: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-January/017967.html It then took a while to get somebody with CVS commit rights to respond, which led to the submission of a PR: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/62309 And... not much happened after that, unfortunately. The PR can be closed now if the issue is resolved on the 5.x branch. -- Jay http://www.esuna.co.uk/ - Coming soon, community blogging at its best!
