Last time I checked it was hardmasked. Now it's been confined into oblivion, I hope. It had a "little" problem in resolving the dependencies of a newly introduced boot service that created a cycle and caused the boot process to hang (almost) forever with rc_parallel=YES. With 100% repeatability, mind you, which does raise same questions on the amount of testing done before release. Yes, it's ~arch and rc_parallel is explicitly marked "experimental", but it's not expected to be completely and consistently broken, either. If that sounds like I'm ranting, it's because I just spent about an hour getting three machines affected by this problem back into working state. If anyone still has it installed, it's time to sync and downgrade :) andrea
