The commit to force init to be linked statically was made on 2003/11/19, so your system is too old to see the change. Commit message attached below. Robert N M Watson FreeBSD Core Team, TrustedBSD Projects robert@fledge.watson.org Network Associates Laboratories revision 1.28 date: 2003/11/19 19:57:20; author: gordon; state: Exp; lines: +2 -0 Make init statically linked by default. It's not worth the pain of having a dynamically linked init as recently seen by ia64 woes. Approved by: re (jhb)
