NetBSD got rid of this ages ago. Well Kirk McKusick has already committed the license change, a la: http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=524952+0+current/cvs-all If you follow that thread you will find discussion on cvs-committers about including it in GENERIC, etc. With the license issue resolved I don't see any reason it couldn't be permanently symlinked. I'm sure this will happen over the next few days. Watch cvs-all for related commits. Brandon D.
