Well, and deliberate ABI changes are frowned upon by toolchain people. To me (without having looked further than the bug report) this seems to be an implementation bug in xlib, which appears to assume some magic number as element granularity in the array instead of the proper sizeof(element). So the correct fix for it wouldn't be architecture-dependent. Thiemo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
