I kind of agree with you on this, Josh. Unfortunately, a long time ago, in my work, a choice has been made to use SCO with our customers (more than 1000). And I'm not the one who can choose to move to another OS. I would better use linux, my life would be simpler in many ways but I have to deal with this choice. > Regardless if what Bruce says is FUD or not the reality is, I seriously > doubt anyone here wants to > support or take bug reports for a product that is supported by a company > that is the complete > antithesis of everything good about FOSS. > I understand what your positions are and I respect them. But I think we should be very careful with what we say because FUD is not a good thing, even for us. If I posted my message here, it was only to know if someone already had this experience and found a way to fix it. It didn't want you to put extra code to fix a buggy compiler.
