I'm looking for a volunteer to commit some fixes to -stable: PR DATE SYNOPSIS --------- -------- -------- bin/7757 08/27/98 xlint/gcc: "warning: integral constant too large" misc/7759 08/27/98 proflibs installation error, libcrypt_p.a kern/8383 10/20/98 msdosfs wipes out NT VFAT lower case flags See the PRs for details, but here are brief comments: bin/7757: Priority: low Fix has been in CVS repository for a long time, but only in -current. A file needs to be migrated to -stable (tag change). misc/7759: Priority: low Probably applies to -current also. 5 lines of tested code need to be added to a shell script. kern/8383: Priority: medium Probably applies to -current also. PR has a patch for several files. I've been running it successfully since 10/13/98. If no one is willing to do the work then I'm volunteering to do it. Note, though, that I'm not in a position to do anything to -current: I have only one machine, and it runs 2.2.7-R.
