You're asking why the XFree86Server test is used in exemem.c? I don't know the details, but the old CVS log for execmem.c has: revision 1.2.2.3 date: 2005-10-21 18:09:24 +0000; author: idr; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 Make execmem.c compile in the server (libGLcore). Since xf86mmap doesn't know about MAP_ANONYMOUS, this is the only viable fix. This issue will likely have to be revisited at some point. -Brian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
