Then make sure that "link in native code" isn't a permission--"link in native code library X" is. That way the sysadmin or whoever can make sure that only harmless libraries get in. The control mechanism could be in Parrot_dlopen, which would make (well-behaved) native libraries subject to it too. --Brent Dax <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> @roles=map {"Parrot $_"} qw(embedding regexen Configure) >How do you "test" this 'God' to "prove" it is who it says it is?
