Out of curiosity, how do you get correct (i.e. posix) behavior from shared libraries without weak symbols? If I define my own ``read()'' routine, other posix routines which ``act as if they internally call read'' won't call *my* read() will they? (In FBSD2.0.5 I mean). If they do, this is broken (non-posix) behavior. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert Withrow, Tel: +1 617 598 4480, Fax: +1 617 598 4430 Net: witr@rwwa.COM R.W.
