Sounds good. BDE suggested the roundup/roundup2 macros in sys/param.h when I was removing some macros from net/if.c. > BTW, i notice that the rounding is to multiples of "sizeof(long)", > and i wonder if this is intentional, especially on 64-bit > architectures. Our wordsize is long on all architectures so that makes sense to me. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
