Policies are not the answer. Using such a flag is no big issue. *Iff* we should end up with some form of private file descriptors changing the default for them would be OK, too. But the existing semantics mustn't be touched, even if it is selectable. Trying to fix existing buggy code this way is foolish since it might just as well break assumptions in the same program. - -- ➧ Ulrich Drepper ➧ Red Hat, Inc. ➧ 444 Castro St ➧ Mountain View, CA ❖ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGXxm/2ijCOnn/RHQRAm+wAJ9YD6KsS6T96xChZvS/3yCwCo6+0gCgl0IY y6OxxUcuQ8yGJsiYebkuIMY= =tkxV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
