Well, I loaded the Linux LKM matched to an old kernel to show Wingz to someone, and crashed my system badly :( (Well, I didn'y notice that the last make World failed to install linux_mod.o, because of _linux_mod not being defined.) That was not surprising, but when fsck cleaned my /usr partition, it complained about lots of UNREF FILE I=xxx and there was one malloc warning for each inode, which may or may not point at some problem ... Malloc warning: free: junk pointer (too low) gets written at the first UNREF FILE line, Malloc warning: free: junk pointer (too high) for each succeeding inode being removed. Just wanted to let you know, since I'm not sure just what this message means ... (This was -current, BTW.)
