I didn't do this as normally we're pretty conservative about this sort of change, but now they are fixed, it just plain makes sense. I suspect Boost.Interprocess doesn't work on FreeBSD yet -- it needs sem_t's shared between processes. Does anybody have work in progress for this? We are in 8.0 freeze right now and it would be great to be able to sort this out, IF someone has it up their sleeve. This was recently bashed around on -STABLE. cheers BMS
