As I already answered elsewhere, that=20 way we'll have at least first real stats how it affects building system=20 instead of that endless BSD vs. POSIX speculation (I already tired of)=20 without any real ground of things affected. > >Apples and oranges. select is BSD own function unlike putenv which is no= t=20 > >BSD own and initially adopted without too much care. >=20 > Then someone needs to fix the "HISTORY" section of getenv(3).

We can't call POLA what is not belongs to us and poorly=20 implemented in our base later just because it stays in that form for a=20 long time. Moreover, having it in poorly implemented form will result that= =20 our soft will be unportable, so we lost possibility to attract potential=20 users. --=20 http://ache.pp.ru/ --EVF5PPMfhYS0aIcm Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFGNyJ/Vg5YK5ZEdN0RAiesAJ99rTt/pK4LeejWRj8gfC8mnGsFvQCePWNj +QFPGsjs/XRmXNkpXH7kn0g= =+A6o -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --EVF5PPMfhYS0aIcm--
