Make sure you have COMPAT4X=yes > in your /etc/make.conf and no bump is required. But this isn't the default. Thinking about this scares me. Am I right in saying that std{in,out,err} are now real symbols rather than being #defines to the __sF array an that the real symbols will *always* simply refer to the same memory as the __sF array through the life of libc.so.4 ? If that's the case, then that sounds reasonable. Otherwise I'm scared :*) > Cheers, > -Peter > -- > Peter Wemm - peter@FreeBSD.org; peter@yahoo-inc.com; peter@netplex.com.au > "All of this is for nothing if we don't go to the stars" - JMS/B5 -- Brian http://www.freebsd-services.com/ Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !
