I think you're twice off-by-one here, : $ cvs -R ann -rRELENG_6_BP param.h | grep '#define.*__FreeBSD_version' : : Annotations for param.h : *************** : 1.244 (sam 11-Jul-05): #define __FreeBSD_version 600032 /* Master, propagated to newvers */ but it still doesn't answer my question. Why you've choosen this __FreeBSD_version and not RELENG_6_BP (i.e., 600032). I don't mind it, just want to understand the formulae. :-) > It also is one greater than the largest if that > was removed. Can you elaborate on what you mean here? I don't understand. Thanks.
