We've always thought it was a clean design, thank you very much. Aside from the kernel, the hard porting work is the signals code in libc. If you got this code to work right, well you're the first person to do it without help from me, so congratulations! I'd like to get your code incorporated. I hope your ppc-specific changes are easy to separate from your osfmach-specific changes. I would like to get the ppc hurd code into libc on its own, so it's ready to go if anybody ever ports gnumach (or a different microkernel) to ppc. Also, there has been some interest in the past in running the hurd on top of osfmach on x86. If your osfmach support code is clean, it should cover that pretty well too. I am very eager to see all your code. _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
