The following reply was made to PR kern/11165; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Julian Elischer <julian@vicor.com> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, aef@shu.smolensk.su Cc: Subject: Re: kern/11165: IBCS2 don't work correctly with PID_MAX 99999 Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2004 11:33:46 -0700 No it's an inherrent problem.. pids inthese systems are a 16 bit word they can not HOLD a PID > 16 bits.. I suggest adding a sysctl that keeps the new generated pids < 60000 as they were for years.. this is true also fo freebsd 1.x binaries which had the same problem when run under new FreeBSDs.
