* The latest version of xfmail (1.3) was developed with xforms-0.88.1, * so there shouldn't be any problem. * * Also 0.88.1 is merely a bug-fix release. Sorry I didn't make myself clear. The problem was was actually reported a few weeks ago with xfmail-1.2 with xforms-0.88.1. But that's not the point. Does the xforms library go through incompatible changes within the same shared library major number? Then, we should do something about it, as there are a lot (16, I think) ports that depend on it. The "something" ranges from making sure everything works fine before xforms is upgraded, to splitting xforms into two ports and changing library basenames (libxforms1, libxforms2, etc.) to allow individual ports to select either one, for instance.
