Hello all, For the handful of you who care about compat_freebsd, here is a update on this situation:
compat_freebsd has been broken in late 3.x's up through 4.1 but is fixed in CURRENT. A 4.2 snapshot from the 7th appears to work and I am trying to determine if there is a patch that can be applied to 4.1. A PR does not appear to have been opened. Should anyone know where the mmap fix was made, I would appreciate hearing it. I have done many searches of cvsweb and looked in some likely places but have not found it. Note that the freebsd_lib is unlikely to be responsible for the issue as it simply includes some libraries, ldconfig and sets the sysctl.
