Agreed. These feature-level ifdefs might have been useful in a day where adding 2 kB to a library was horrid. Not so much today. I also agree with Paul that if it pulls in an additional external library, the ifdef is still appropriate. -- Bill Wohler <[email protected]> aka <[email protected]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
