I have not verified it, but came across messages indicating that the bug has been fixed in glibc, at least. The function is used by 'id' in the coreutils version in unstable and Lenny. :) Happy hacking, -- Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
