You are very right, and your conditional is very accurate. The macros "B$num" carry a formal value in any BSD, but carry an encoded exact value only for the Linux kernel. Nothing relevant to any Libc in sight, only standards. My original message was crafted at a time when I was still elaborating my incomplete understanding. Nowadays I do appreciate that __FreeBSD_kernel__ contains an implicit __GLIBC__, since that is the only situation it makes sense as of yet! > Also, have you sent this patch to upstream? Upstream is dead as a stone. The most recent code in the tar-archive is dated 1997-09-18, 16:39. We are on our own since a long time back.
