Hi; Just FYI, after reconsidering their position wrt NIH, the linux guys now think SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE is wonderful: http://lwn.net/Articles/440255/ and NetBSD is known to be working on it too (latest patch): http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2011/08/17/msg011231.html I hope our own developers haven't forgotten that this is indeed a desired feature and that we get it for 10.0 or, if possible, 9.1. cheers, Pedro.
