Looking at that section of code, lpd is just doing:
if (ifilter < 0)
status.w_retcode = 100;
else
while ((pid = wait((int *)&status)) > 0 &&
pid != ifilter)
;
followed by some code which would not modify 'status', followed by:
switch (status.w_retcode) {
case 0:
break;
case 1:
unlink(tfile);
return(REPRINT);
case 2:
unlink(tfile);
return(ERROR);
default:
syslog(LOG_WARNING, "%s: filter '%c' exited"
" (retcode=%d)",
pp->printer, format, status.w_retcode);
unlink(tfile);
return(FILTERERR);
}
If you got 'retcode=108' (not 100), then lpd is just printing out
the status as returned by 'wait()'. I don't see any recent changes
to that section of code in lpd.
