	- my system :

FreeBSD localhost.webbernet.net 4.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT 
#0: Sun Jan 31 10:47:18 EST 1999 
bonga@myname.domain:/usr/home/cvs/src/sys/compile/GENERIC  i386

	- difference between /usr/lib/*.a and /usr/lib/*_p.a symbols:

$ ls -l *edit*
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  67502 Feb  2 16:59 libedit.a
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel     12 Feb  2 16:59 libedit.so -> libedit.so.2
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  68296 Feb  2 16:59 libedit.so.2
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  79714 Feb  2 16:59 libedit_p.a

$ nm -o *edit* |grep term_beep
libedit_p.a:editline.po:000068e0 t term_beep

i was wondering why libedit.a doesn't contain the term_beep symbol while
the same library with profiling contains it? if i wanted to access this
symbol for a non-profiled compile, how would i do that?

this is the only place where i can find any reference to term_beep at all

$ nm -o /usr/lib/* |grep term_beep
/usr/libexec/elf/nm: aout: File format not recognized
/usr/libexec/elf/nm: compat: File format not recognized
libedit_p.a:editline.po:000068e0 t term_beep
