just did some more testing -- the problem does appear to be FreeBSD
specific. Solaris 8 and all the Linuxes I've got handy run this no
probs. Don't have any openbsd or netbsd to test those out ...
I'll just #ifdef in some code for FreeBSD. anybody know what
#ifdef I should use before I start digging through headers?
thanks :-)
