A little confusion here - Quote from The Complete FreeBSD - "USER_LDT allows user processes to manipulate their local descriptor table. This is required for Linux emulation." Quote from file "LINT" (2.2.8:/usr/sys/i386/conf/) - "Allow user-mode programs to manipulate their local descriptor tables. This option is required for the WINE Windows(tm) emulator, and is not used by anything else (that we know of)." Is this option really required for Linux emulation?
