(Second try with a more benign mailer) Hello; A while back the Bull NFS4 for linux project took our RPC support from libcand did some enhancements on it. The libraries have been diverging extensively and many of the changes are linux specific. The complete log of their changes is here: http://git.infradead.org/users/steved/libtirpc.git/log I don't think it would be a good idea to consider them upstream vendors, but I thought it would be good to attempt to keep partially in sync. I only took a rather small subset of their changes and got to this patch: http://people.freebsd.org/~pfg/patches/patch-rpc <http://people.freebsd.org/%7Epfg/patches/patch-rpc> For those interested in the changelog, it's here: http://people.freebsd.org/~pfg/patches/libtirpc-log <http://people.freebsd.org/%7Epfg/patches/libtirpc-log> This is rather critical stuff (libc) so I have no hurry and would like extensive testing before considering it for head. Please give it a try and report any issue. Pedro.
