2003-11-06 Thread Palle Girgensohn
Was this problem fixed? Can I request the problem report @ FreeBSD to be 
closed?

Thanks,
Palle

Given that we're not supporting BeOS at the moment anyway, I wonder
whether we need libbind on any platform.  I know linking it causes
some minor problems for me on HPUX (I have to take it out if I want
to build with profiling...)
Comments anyone?

Well, the BeOS port is already broken, and has been for awhile,
because no one's bothered to step up and maintain it.  Are you
volunteering?  It needs work on semaphore support, at least.

Even on BeOS, is pulling in libbind really sensible?  I get the
impression that we're doing it just to get a couple of trivial
functions like inet_ntoa.  Those could be handled by supplying
replacement implementations, perhaps.

I'm not unwilling to put an if-test into configure so that
libbind is only included on BeOS, but I wonder whether that's
the best approach.
