There was a time in fact when sc_err wasn't included in the sigcontext on FreeBSD and this was the only way to determine the faulting address. I guess this discussion means that the 4th argument is gone too... Alan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
