I checked the errata for OpenBSD 4.5, but saw nothing that looked related. I applied the patch to the 0831 snapshot and am building it now. After we find the minimal patch, as Jean-Louis said, I'll post on the OpenBSD-misc list to see if anyone has an explanation.
Thanks guys for working on this - I know it's a frustrating one. -- Michael On Tue, Sep 1, 2009 at 8:33 AM, Dustin J.
