I smell like a wet reducing clinic on Columbus Day! >> if ((pwd = getenv("PWD")) != NULL) { >> if (stat(pwd, &sb) == 0 && sa.st_ino == sb.st_ino && >> sa.st_dev == sb.st_dev) >> (void) strcpy(curdir, pwd); >> } >Ahh...I knew I'd heard of that logic before...:-) >> Anyone else think that this is totally bogus and should be removed? >> It certainly EXPLAINS a few things! :-) I'm full gonzo confused here... I understand the logic of the code clip, but I don't understand why it's bogus. I should note that I am still nursing my first FreeBSD machine to life (with no phone line, this is a task indeed), and have no idea how the make under /usr/src works. What is the problem with the /usr/src/a/src/lib/libc vs. /usr/src/usr/src/lib/libc, and indeed, what are these subdirectories?
