At this point I am also against this for the code-reading + creaping-nonportable-featurism reasons Brian brought up. Also please realize that there is only a small group of committers that actively read freebsd-audit. If you are bringing in new interfaces like this freebsd-arch is the right list for that. Discussing the need in freebsd-audit for merit before posting to freebsd-arch is of course a useful thing. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
