I know you (Andrey) have gotten a lot of flak about the changes to getenv/putenv, and I do think the changes to those routines could have been phased in a better way than they were. But I expect the fixes to *other* programs (such as usr.bin/env) could be committed without causing any trouble for anyone. If that's true, then we might as well leave those changes in. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = drosehn@rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@FreeBSD.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy, NY; USA
