I'll review them as soon as I get my server going (I had a little mishap using the uname hack), but I seriously doubt there is anything wrong given the source...and I certainly welcome somebody else hacking on JDK. I should be able to get to JDK on Tuesday or Wednesday for a second or third verification. David, we'd certainly appreciate it if you can apply the gcc41 patch and let us know how it goes. It'd be nice to have as much testing done as possible approaching RC. -- DJ Lucas -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
