Not only crypt had large buffers. Thus we arrive to busybox + busybox-crypt + busybox-getpwnam + busybox-gethostbyname + busybox-getpwnam-and-gethostbyname + ... solution. Which would hint that we solve the problem from the wrong end - it's not application's job to cater for large buffers in uclibc wasting space, it's uclibc's job to not waste space. -- vda _______________________________________________ uClibc mailing list [email protected] http://busybox.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uclibc
