And none of mine do - but all of mine require AF_TIMER sockets, which I don't see NetBSD hurrying to adopt. I don't think any one person's use cases are a useful guide. I actually don't think even "a large majority of users need it" or "a large majority of systems need it" are justification for this; examples of optional things which I think should remain optional despite being very popular are options INET and pseudo-device pty. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
