Please delay committing -- since it is UUENCODED, it is a bit repo bloat if we don't get it right. It doesn't seem right to put 3.x bits into the compat22 dist. By definition they are the wrong bits.

But I would like to look into this before anything is committed. - -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
