I strongly disagree with you. Only because someone stepped forward to give make(1) some care and feeding were some bugs fixed, and some good functionality added from our cousins.

Feh. How many other _major_ overreaching commits have there been w/o a `make buildworld'?? Tons. So making an issue of this behavior in general, is a Good Thing [to me]. However, you seem to be using this instance as justification for yanking the maintainer bit w/o any discussion. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) GNU is Not Unix / Linux Is Not UniX To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
