You should be able to submit a followup to the PR itself, and since the changes would affect the PR directly (ie. supersede your previous patches) that would definitely be the best course of action. If you go to http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=5863 and whack the 'submit followup' link at the bottom, it should all happen automagically. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
