Would a patch against 2.6a2 be OK? I have had a lot of problems building Python on Gentoo Linux (where I developed these patches) w/o using their ebuild system, so I am trying to keep things simple. This stuff isn't really new as such, it's been in Windows, OpenSolaris and other OSes for a while now -- and trying to get FreeBSD SSM support out the door. I can understand if folk don't want to incorporate it in the production releases which most people are using, though, however it's still important that it sees the light of day. Unfortunately the setsourcefilter() APIs are not terribly accessible to non C users such as Python without the wrapping, otherwise we end up instantiating arrays like we have to for fcntl.ioctl(). Also the plat-linux2 stuff seems to be lagging w.r.t the glibc inet defines in IN.py, where much of this stuff would normally appear. cheers BMS __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2574> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
