It's still unchanged. Then my recommendation would be to not submit anything until you have tested modern materials. Possibly duplicate the media and work on the copy if you want to preserve the content for some reason. The test results with modern material would be part of the evidence to submit, well matching what someone who works on the problem would use instead of having the accidents of your history involved that they would be unlikely to want to duplciate. > What makes me think it's FreeBSD that's changed is that it boots and = runs fine with the stable/14 kernel from the last successful update = about a month ago but not with sources downloaded yesterday.=20 May well be true but testing only with the old materials a combination that does not come close to matching what others would use to work on the problem would be far from optimal. > The upgrades are all in-place upgrades.

Good to know. > Do you think I should make a bugzilla report? After you have tried a combination of materials more similar to what someone that works on the problem would be using. Then report on that basis. Such is want I recommend. =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar)
