You have no idea what you're talking about. None of your "technical arguments" are technical. Your attempts to be the "better person" by offering up helpful advice about how to have a technical discussion come off as egotistic and naive, as there was a technical discussion happening long before you started interjecting ridiculous hand-wavy assertions such as "overlays are unsupported" and "cache is almost always up-to-date", and highly hypocritical, as you manage to break most of the rules you lay out /later in the very same post/. You are being played with, Mr. Kitten, and statements such as you quoted above are balls of yarn tossed your way to see how long it takes you to pounce. I'm tired of playing, as I'm sure you are. So please, let's be quiet now, and let the big people talk. -- gcc-porting, by design, by neglect treecleaner, for a fact or just for effect wxwidgets @ gentoo EFFD 380E 047A 4B51 D2BD C64F 8AA8 8346 F9A4 0662
