Based on Jordan's and other arguments, and the general support I've gotten, I'll go ahead and just do it. it == commit the rest of the -d stuff, fully functional, no warnings. I understand Nate's and Bruce's objections. They are correct as far as they go,, and I agree better ways to doo the same thing exist and -d shouldn't be encouraged in the system build. However, in this particular case, compatibility with other, closely related systems, overrides the concerns over its potential for abuse. I appreciate all the input that I've received, and will remember it in the future, as it gives me a good feel for the underlying philsophical landscape of the FreeBSD community. Warner
