For things like 32-bit variables in networking code, I think that explicitly-sized storage is the way to go (I'll commit src/sys/netinet/in.h with a change like that soon). There are many things where I don't mean them to stay that way necessarily (meaning I don't care - like termios), but I need to be consistent with what the NetBSD kernel expects. Bruce tends to react badly to almost every one of these. 8-( -- John Birrell - jb@cimlogic.com.au; jb@freebsd.org http://www.cimlogic.com.au/ CIMlogic Pty Ltd, GPO Box 117A, Melbourne Vic 3001, Australia +61 418 353 137 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
