Thanks Joe. I went hunting for the msun sources at Sun's web site/FTP server to see if newer sources were available, but came up empty. I suspect that bde is the only person who has a functioning libm. As far as the functionality in libm that is missing in msun, I would be interested in some details because I removed libm several weeks ago and I haven't noticed any problems with my computations. Additionally, a quick glance at msun/Makefile suggests that the sources in libm are not used in building the math library. -- Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
