Namespace inheritance is ignored when searching the symbol match. On the other hand. FBSDprivate_1.0 is explicitely created to be changed, so removal of the symbols from this namespace if fine from the POV of the project policy. Another argument is that both MIPS and ARM are the second-tier architecture= s, and again, project policy allows ABI breakage. --eIl4nToEGsUQVZmC Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk8T4gwACgkQC3+MBN1Mb4grMgCcC1PIZHIEHXrmRmAnrkIX9Jdr Up8AniD2lSHE59io02BtZyxzSBJpIm12 =t15a -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --eIl4nToEGsUQVZmC--
