The "hooks" in Bones where rather innocent looking calls to bzero and bcopy. It was necessary to inspect every bzero/bcopy call before putting the calls to DES back. Eric Young put the DES calls back and changed the name to eBones. To the best of my knowledge MIT did not have Bones reviewed/approved for export (and it was probably not necessary either). Many years later somebody at Cygnus got an approval that it was ok to export the Ebones sources. /Björn -- _ _ ,_______________.
