Pardon my lack of proper protocol - this is the first time I've ventured into reporting FreeBSD bugs, and I'm a bit unsure how to do so. I just spent several evenings finding out that FreeBSD's bootparamd isn't 64-bit clean. Turns out, I'm not the only one; in April, 2007, Tyler Spivey filed PR 112163 about this. He also included a simple patch, to clear up most of the problems (replacing long with ip_addr_t in several key places). What's the likelihood that his patch could be applied before 7.0 is fully released? The patch I'm talking about is his second shot, attached to his problem report here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/112163 -- Mike "No .sig for you" Shuey
