Current is for developers - we should have the > hardware to handle an Emacs re-compile :-) I agree with you. I would like to put a patch into the emacs port before I back out the ld.so hack, though. I probably can't get around to doing that for about a week. I have the patch, but I don't have any more time to spend on this until next weekend. Meanwhile, it turns out that the gzipped executable problem was really a bug in imgact_gzip.c. So I committed a fix for that. John -- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
