Sounds like a sane policy. I have encountered enough people without a clue, that as soon as people start clamming up or asking my to sign NDA's I assume the worst. But generally if a hunk of debugging code causes LinuxBIOS to expand, disabling other debugging code should fix it. One of the struggles with LinuxBIOS has been to build a fixed interface, so that the problem it is trying to solve can be understood and solved well. From a design perspective if you overflow the 64k limit I suspect that the line of functionality has been crossed. Eric
