One question: did you really mean to post > this to -stable? Yes because I posted to current@ at least a week ago and no one responded. :) The patch is at http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/patches/ste_locking.patch and it should apply ok to HEAD. It might not apply to 6.x, but I'll go try to get the other printf changes merged back to 6.x so that the patch should apply and work ok on 6.x as well. I'm not sure if the patches will apply to 5.x. -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org
