This brings up an interesting (to me at least) question though... Terry made a suggestion about altering the at_shutdown queue operation with regards to certain flags (ie: processing the queues once with arg = arg & ~RB_POWEROFF and then again with RB_POWEROFF only presuming (arg & RB_POWEROFF) == RB_POWEROFF). Supposing I come up with a new set of patches doing this and instituting a new RB_ flag (like RB_KILLUPS), would I sendpr these as a new PR or would I post them to bugs as a reply to PR#5863? - B ======================================================================== || Bruce M.
