According to Maxime Henrion: > and I would actually be surprised if there was any.

Can > you explain why you think a major number bump of libc is in order here? Because that how you play the major number game in shared libraries world. Anytime you change (i.e. remove a function or change a function's argument in a way that's incompatible with the prevous one) a librabry's interface, you MUST (in the RFC-mode sense of the world) change the major. I agree with Warner that it is a major pain (and why we do this only once in a given branch) and that it this case, we can simply ignore the issue. </pedantic> :-) -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr Darwin snuadh.freenix.org Kernel Version 7.3.0: Fri Mar 5 14:22:55 PST 2004
