It *does* work, I've cut and paste this code from the source of the 'logger' program, right form the Debian sources :) Of course it does not work when it's linked with libstdc++, which is the issue... Furthermore I've checked the glibc source hunting for the bug (unsuccessfully) and the syntax '(priority | facility)' is legal :) -- Farzad FARID Administrateur Reseau Publicis Technology -- E-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST.
