See http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/porting.html for hints about checking the freebsd version during compilation. In particular, the __FreeBSD_version define would be appropriate here. -john To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
