It probably has by now. So I'll do it Monday. GCC 2.95.3 will hi 4-STABLE after April 1st. Heck, April 1st might actually be the best day to do it. So if RELENG_4 is unfrozen by then, that's when I'll MFC it. ;) -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) GNU is Not Unix / Linux Is Not UniX To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
