The problem only occurs once you reference a function that references libc stuff, and those guys are just lucky so far. It's also one less variable to debug if you put the implementation in the kernel, or do you like debugging compiler induced problems? I don't :-) _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
