That's most useful, IMHO. Yes. That's right. One of the things that drove me nuts when I started at my current job at Timing Solutions was the inability to build the modules outside of a freebsd tree w/o abadoning bsd.kmod.mk. I've fixed that, with Bruce's help, and I'll be committing the changes back to FreeBSD shortly. I like working for a Open Source friendly company. :-) Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
