If you cvsupped -current around 7 or 8 pm GMT, watch out for possible
breakage in src/lib/libc/gen/exec.c. It'll compile but may break some
programs, though it's not very serious (you'll still be able to
recompile a functioning libc even with a broken libc installed) Check
the revision number in RCS Id of that file; it should be 1.9:
# ident /usr/src/lib/libc/gen/exec.c
/usr/src/lib/libc/gen/exec.c:
$Id: exec.c,v 1.9 1998/10/14 20:23:40 des Exp $
If you have 1.8 you have the bug. Recompile libc by running:
# cd /usr/src/lib/libc
# make all && make install -DNOMAN
I'll blame it on Bruce, who reviewed my code but didn't spot the bug ;)
