But, then when the compatiblitiy slice stuff went away from 2.2-STABLE, it was required to recompile config(8). So there is some precidence for being able to require such things. [such as recompile of a program or two] I think the guideline more addresses that you can't do something in 2.2-STABLE that would require me to recompile all of /usr/local, /bin, /usr/bin, etc... -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com -or- obrien@FreeBSD.org)
