I couldn't agree more. Helping source-level compatibility, as much as this can be accomplished for kernel code, is definitely a plus. This is partly the reason why I noted that OpenBSD synchronized their queue.h header with NetBSD a few times in the past. I just didn't propose something like this because I'm not sure I can convince any of the three BSD teams to s/SIMPLEQ/STAILQ/ or vice versa :-) - Giorgos _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
