The difference is, that calling panic(9) is not a bug, it's a designed mechanism to panic a kernel. The behaviour reported is NOT designed behaviour (at least, no-one has said it is). Therefore, if the man wants to write a patch to fix unintended behaviour, what's wrong with that? -- Avleen Vig Systems Administrator Personal: www.silverwraith.com EFnet: irc.mindspring.com (Earthlink user access only) _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
