IMO so many things depend on the stdio bits, that a major number increase would have been desireable. So far, bzip2, pine/pico, GNU make, the GNU i18n stuff, fetchmail all needed to be rebuilt. Bumping the major number would at least allow these a stay of execution. - alex To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
