Yacc needs to > generate portable code... Why is this necessary ? Now we have code that checks for the realloc pointer being NULL twice. I agree that this change should be part of any ``portable yacc'' code (if such a thing exists), but can't see why the change is necessary in the FreeBSD tree. I don't object to the extent that I think it should be backed out, this just shouldn't make a precedent IMHO. -- Brian <brian@Awfulhak.org> <brian@FreeBSD.org> <http://www.Awfulhak.org> <brian@OpenBSD.org> Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour ! <brian@FreeBSD.org.uk> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
