Hello,
   I sent this message to freebsd-stable the other day but haven't received
a response yet.  Does anyone have any ideas on this one?

   If you could, please CC me directly since I am not on the "questions"
list.

Thanks,

I'm not sure if this is the most perfect place for this question, but it
sort of relates to some possible updates to the stable branch.

I noticed that the proftpd port is still set at 1.0.0, when a 1.0.3pl1 and
a 1.1.3pre1 (development branch) are available.  As I am using proftpd here
I figured I'd just manually update.  While 1.0.3pl1 compiled fine (with one
new minor correction and using the 1.0.0 port patches as a base), 1.1.3pre1
is giving me some problem.  It seems that as of 1.1.1 (I believe), proftpd
is using the glob() function.  Unfortunately, while they include glob.c and
glob.h with proftpd, configure sees that FreeBSD already has the function
(and include file), and tries to use it.  The problem is that the glob.h
(with proftpd) is dated 1997, while the FreeBSD one is dated 1993.  (I'm
using the copyright date at the top for reference)

Looking through the code, it seems this function has changed a bit.  What's
the possibility of this being updated in stable?  Is the new glob()
function
from gcc 2.8.x?

Thanks for your help.
