BTW: the make rules for send-pr are still broken. obj/send-pr is getting left around for a *long* time and is not being rebuilt when it should. IMHO, it'd be better (although still not right) to get it to read `uname -rsm` at runtime, rather than sed'ing it in at make time. Perhaps another way would be to *force* send-pr to be rebuilt every single time, so there is never a stale copy in gnu/send-pr/obj. Or.. perhaps send-pr needs to read `uname -rsm` for "kern" reports, but use the compiled in name for the other problem categories.. in case the kernel has been supped/rebuilt later, but the other binaries have been unmodified... [[ It's this very same bug which caused 2.0.5-RELEASE to go out with a send-pr tag of "2.0-BUILT-nnnnnn".. There was a stale copy of send-pr left from before Jordan/Rod/whoever changes newvers.sh, and send-pr was not rebuilt, and was installed from the stale, several days old version. ]] Cheers, -Peter
