How about my second suggestion: making v_tag point to

Chris Costello recommended that I do this like this instead:

Ok,
So this represents my most significant effort to date to fix something
in C. It took me far too long to identify where the one line fix needed
to go and even longer to figure out how to do it in C.
Here's the problem that this fixes:

Oops, I'll have to clarify that. No, you don't need to keep an XFree86-4

Hi,
Could anybody give me some info about 'how to compile the FreeBSD source
code' and run.
Any pointers to useful links will also suffice.

Hello Freebsd
I have used FreeBsd For several Months including using
