There's a big difference. 8) I don't want external shared library dependencies. Basically, I'm working on a replacement for /etc/rc, so I can't rely on /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so or any of the libs in /usr/lib. It seems to me like run-time object file aggregation was the optimal solution. -bjc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
