Is there any chance that this bug fix will find its way into > 6.0RELEASE? It is great news that my patch worked for you! However, patches affecting everyone through rc.subr should be tested by much wider audience than the two of us can provide. Hence I'm afraid it is too late to push the patch into 6.0-RELEASE, especially given that there will be no 6.0-RC2. I'd like to merge the patch to RELENG_6 soon after the release is out, so stay tuned :-) -- Yar
