Since ia64 is tier 2 and not widely used, I was fine with breaking the ABI in this respect. The syscall is not used for non-threaded processes, which means that pretty much all of src is unaffected. I don't think we should complicate matters by doing a version bump, because you either want to do that only on ia64, which is a pain, or you do it across the board. In that case you make it visible to all our users and possibly create complications for later when the KSE library gets support for debugging and you have your users still using the old version. Nah... it's good this way... -- Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004 marcel@xcllnt.net
