I'd assume that no ABI[0] have been broken between FreeBSD 8 and FreeBSD 9. If ABI had been broken, the developer should have been responsible enough to create the proper compatibility shim and would already have introduced COMPAT_FREEBSD9. Of course, this leaves options for ABI being broken, compatibility shim introduced, but COMPAT_FREEBSD9 not introduced :) - Arnaud [0]: all the mentions of "ABI" exclude KVM. > Ta > Peg > > > _______________________________________________ > [email protected] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]" > _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
