I don't have the internet bandwidth to suck the entire CVS repository just for this CD. However, Chuck Robey volunteered to prepare me a diff, so i'd rather pick this.

This might help. I will also drop a boldfaced pointer to the SMP mailinglist for anybody who's more serious about this work. Thanks for the help so far! -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
