Hi,
It was brought to my attention that some of the recent "for
4.0-current" fixes have done in haste and without regards of the
Y2.001k problem (which is the branch date for 5.0-current).
Specifically, if you have a configure that looks like this:
freebsd3*)
foo bar baz
then don't change it to
freebsd[34]*)
foo bar baz
but try something like
freebsd[3-9]*)
foo bar baz
or even
freebsd*)
foo bar baz
depending on what other cases are around it.
That way we won't have to do the same thing all over again when the
next branch rolls around. Thanks!
Satoshi
