The following reply was made to PR ports/23007; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Donald J . Maddox" <dmaddox@sc.rr.com> To: justin.kolodziej@marquette.edu Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ports/23007: /usr/include/stdbool.h broken Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2000 12:28:42 -0500 I submitted a PR on this same problem about a week ago... The only committer who has responded was Bruce Evans, who pointed out that this file is even more broken than I initially thought. He, however, deferred the fix to the author who has not expressed any interest in the issue thus far :( On Tue, Nov 21, 2000 at 09:14:12AM -0800, justin.kolodziej@marquette.edu wrote: > > >Number: 23007 > >Category: ports > >Synopsis: /usr/include/stdbool.h broken > >Confidential: no > >Severity: non-critical > >Priority: medium > >Responsible: freebsd-ports > >State: open > >Quarter: > >Keywords: > >Date-Required: > >Class: sw-bug > >Submitter-Id: current-users > >Arrival-Date: Tue Nov 21 09:20:00 PST 2000 > >Closed-Date: > >Last-Modified: > >Originator: Justin A.
