No recompiling needed; if you don't like the default options, just # ln -s aj /etc/malloc.conf > 2. pam modules break backwards compatibility with pam apps compiled on > RELENG_4. The only solution I've been offered is to recompile things (or, > my preferred solution, don't use pam). Wrong. PAM modules are now versioned, and old (unversioned) modules will not be clobbered. We might want to put the old libpam and modules in COMPAT_4X though. > 3. xconsole causes periodic panics. The problem (according to BDE) is "a > well-know bug in printf(9)," caused by "The TIOCCONS ioctl ... panics when > printf() is called while sched_lock is held." I reported this bug in > October 2001, if anyone wants to look through the archives. Ages-old, very difficult to fix. Just don't use xconsole.
