I'd like Roland's opinion on this. Roland, for many functions using dir_lookup we get EINVAL rathern than the ENOENT required by POSIX when a pathname is the empty string "". Where should this be fixed? Thanks, Marcus _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
