Ok, this is a good claim and making it public will be even better. The p4 optimisation is known to be problematic and users should be notified before they'll shoot the foot off.

It's long time problem now and comes up periodically in the lists. -- Vallo Kallaste kalts@estpak.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
