I definitely don't think that changing the ctor, etc to accept a size_t is MFC'able, and I don't think that the problem (which is really only theoretical at this point) warrants an MFC to -stable. I was talking about potentially doing it in a separate commit to head, but that does leave -stable and head with a different API. This can be painful for downstream consumers to deal with, which is why I wanted comments. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
