Yeah. So, if I don't load libusual (and continue only loading ub), I'll continue to get the "every device gets a shot at ub" behavior as before? > So, why won't we simply encode the knowledge about things which > are safe for ub in a monstrous if-if-if statement?

I guess it seems more clumsy and redundant to me to do it by hand, maintaining several dozen extra flags, rather than a bit of code. But, I don't fully understand the interaction between libusual and unusual_devs, so I'm sure you're right. -- Glenn Maynard ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
