Seeing as I had to recompile anyhow because of the sendmail
fun'n'games, I decided to give Books' and Luoqi's patches a spin.
Happy to say, everything works fine and I have the linux-sun-jdk14
port running happily as non-root both in a jail and under the host
environment using 4.8-RC as of yesterday.
Is it too late to get these patches into 4.8-RELEASE ?
Cheers,
Matthew
