It'll work if somebody backports -current's libc_r. I'm not going to do it since it's not a good use of my time. > Do you think there will be a HotSpot patchset for -stable at all?

I did make a backup of my > -current before I switched :-)))) The stuff that's in our CVS is only for -stable with a rather bad bug fix patch of mine to libc_r. It's better all around to use -current or -current's libc_r for this purpose instead of the -stable's libc_r. Somebody will have to backport it to -stable like I said before. I'm about to remove all of that stuff (-stable support) in the CVSs, so Greg's patch might be dated when it comes out. I think it should be released regardless, so that folks have an oppurtunity to play with it and then release something specifically for -current next. Maintaining trees for two OSes is tedious and time consuming. -stable is dead. :) bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
