That's an interesting definition of "broken" you're using here.

If that is the niveau you decide to use to discuss methods that are new to you, different from those you're already used to, then there is no use in continuing this "discussion" with you. I was under the assumption that the Hurd people (I'm aware that only Alfed replied so far) would be interested in replacing -- well, in some way -- deadlocked UNIX techniques with superior ones. I'm somewhat confused and disappointed, but I'll carry on. Thomas _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list Bug-hurd@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
