You didn't read the rest of my message before responding. How can libftpio be used by code which must be compiled -traditional, without __P()? You need a decent programming editor which can fold things like __P() out so that they can still be there, yet your sensitive eyes are protected from seeing them. Maybe there's a port of the "peril sensitive editor" for FreeBSD? 8-).
