Having to pick up an additional #include is sometimes a source of trouble, because: a) it's easy to forget (and hard to detect when having forgotten only breaks the other platform) b) one might not be able to assume this file is present (<sys/param.h> is not in POSIX, for example) Nevermind that, it's much better than not having the macro at all. -- Robert Millan _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
