Hmm. It occurs to me that this may not be the whole problem. Consider the case of a capability that is NEVER transferred with a MAP operation. In this case there *is* no parent. Is it possible that this introduced a problem? If so, I think there may be a straightforward solution. shap _______________________________________________ L4-hurd mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/l4-hurd
