Changes to the (default) text are only going to happen if you update one of the master texts. It's debatable as to whether the master texts should be intermixed with the source as they are now, or separate to make i18n work simpler. At any rate, I'm not convinced that committing the merged text is the right way to go; it's even more dubious than having the generated syscall-related files in the repo. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
