It *didn't* work before -- hence the fix. The failure mode from being off by just one isn't total nonfunctionality, but rather a corrupted character now and then, which could explain why it wasn't fixed before. As for arch/ppc, I'm just trying to not break it more than it already is. -Scott _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
