Thanks, applied (to the maint-5.8 branch as change #19106, it'll get from there to the bleadperl branch when I get to it). Some comments: > Configure - (Sorry, no patch for a unit...) Four metaconfig units, in fact, but I now updated them. > reentr.pl - The logic to support crypt_r() erroneously keys > on GLIBC. [Should be done by Configure instead!] Yeah, it should, but the reentrant functions are such a mess of nonportability that I am not eager to add any more probes for them into Configure (the _r prototype probing is the only part of the puzzle that I feel comfortable with having it in Configure). -- Jarkko Hietaniemi <jhi@iki.fi> http://www.iki.fi/jhi/ "There is this special biologist word we use for 'stable'.
