I assume the fix is something simple like replacing a select with a simple assignment. For Linux, it would help some of us if somebody would track down the place that needs fixing and publish a diff. I took a quick scan and didn't find it, but my kernel may be before somebody added that tweak. -- The suespammers.org mail server is located in California. So are all my other mailboxes.
