There is no guarantee whatsoever that the system libraries in 5.0 and 4.0 are going to be in sync; once the code bases diverge significantly enough, it's likely that you will not be able to run -CURRENT packages on -STABLE or 4-RELEASE (why would you want to, anyways? Don't we make 4.0 packages?) Eric To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
