sef 1997/06/22 12:04:04 PDT Modified files: sys/i386/ibcs2 ibcs2_xenix.c Log: For the xenix_ftime() routine, don't use the native version of the struct -- the XENIX version is packed, and two bytes smaller than ours. So, define the structure, and have it packed. I used the __attribte__((packed)) modifier for this; I could also have surrounded the struct definition with #pragma pack(2) -- but that would have meant making ibcs2_timeb's definition outside the function. This may need to be revisited if we ever want to compile with a compiler other than gcc. (I also used 'unsigned long' instead of 'time_t' because I am writing to match an external specification -- and the definition of time_t could change.)
