Hello,
we can add and use new variable like use_getgrouplist in mc.lib.
Let system admins or users who defined MC_DATADIR approve this
setting for their systems.
So what would be the default value for the variable?
- TRUE on non-glibc systems,
- TRUE on glibc systems with glibc>=2.3.3,
- FALSE otherwise?
I think run-time detection of this glibc misfeature is not trivial.
I think it _is_ trivial. If we abstract from the possibility of some
distributions that might patch this thing without increasing the version
number.
But another question arises: Do we want to keep this variable and the
patch forever? Or will we remove it in one or two years?
