I chose to entirely remove these comments because converting them to have the comments above the lines they refer to breaks the sorted-alphabetically style of the rest of those modules. Anyways, if you want me to prepare a patch that moves the comment-lines above those that they currently break, I can prepare one very easily. Let's see. The 'we should have CVS support this' option has to go through the CVS developers list. I will contact them, and if they think this is a relatively useful thing to include in their next CVS release, and I or one of them comes up with the proper diffs, I will follow-up on this PR with the outcome of the discussion. -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
