I'm hosting a barbecue at my place this weekend so I'll be spending most of my time cleaning junk my wife collected in the yard (she's out of town for a couple of weeks so it gives me license to do some tidying up without interference, e.g. haul some of this stuff to the trash pit -- getting rid of the trash is not the issue but the method I will choose is -- a real life bikeshed issue). But I promise to look at it on Tuesday. Deal? I've assigned the PR to myself. -- Cheers, Phone: 250-387-8437 Cy Schubert Fax: 250-387-5766 Team Leader, Sun/Alpha Team Email: Cy.Schubert@osg.gov.bc.ca Open Systems Group, CITS Ministry of Management Services Province of BC FreeBSD UNIX: cy@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
