It will work on 8 RELEASE just fine except for a macro define that ALTQ
required that's not in RELEASE, what I did was stick the define into the
header
and all was well. I was thinking that I would not check that change in but I
now
see it will probably be useful to have it in the mainstream. I have another
hot
issue this morning but I will try and check the change into HEAD this
afternoon
then you will able to just pull that and the driver will drop into 8 REL
with no
problem.
