We certainly could add value to the NetBSD libs, so I don't think they'd complain too much. (Assuming we were contributing to them.. wha we really need is a member of the NetBSD team who would be willing to act as a conduit for FreeBSD changes.... we are lucky that we had the relatively recent common ancestry of the 4.4 sources..... One question that I don't know hte answer to, is: what about the way we and they have structured the library? >
