Our new-branch-per-project methodology @work made us implement this change locally. Another change that was necessary along the same lines was to remove any hostnames or path names that leak into object code, the most noticeable of which is of course one of the first kernel boot message lines. Are there plans to change kernel code and/or hostname/path name stuff? -- Brian Somers Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !
