Thanks ... I didn't realise that the old fix was unreliable (don't
recall seeing bug reports about it ... probably not too many people
using FreeBSD).
It's good to have a better version.
Do you know if the issue applies to any other BSD variants? If it
does, perhaps we should use autoconf to test for the header and
include/use the new fix on all BSDs rather than just on FreeBSD?
