I don't think this kind of invective is appropriate for the
freebsd-hackers list. Perhaps you should confine your sentiments to
less public venues.

There needs to be a license that says something to the effect of "Anyone
can use/buy/sell/modify/distribute this software with or without source
code except Microsoft."

An article over on www.Kuro5hin.org by a someone who claims
to be a former MS employee describes the stack used in NT back
in the early 90's as code which was liscensed from a company
called 'Spider'. In the comp.unix.admin archives I found a post
which references Spider QNIX as a *nix variant so

Hello,
while porting a software to FreeBSD, I came across a problem with
pthread_attr_setscope(3). The software sets PTHREAD_SCOPE_SYSTEM
attribute. From the pthread_attr_setscope(3) implementation file, a
comment says that this attribute is unsupported (though the code doesn't
show that). Me
I've encountered a problem in the interaction betwen signals, longjmp and
pthreads; I'm hoping someone can help me make sense of it.
I've been trying to implement a IsBadReadPtr-style function in FreeBSD by
using signal handlers and longjmp/setjmp. It seemed to work as expected,
until I started u

Yea. I'm getting too grumpy for reasons that are outside the list.
Doug is aware of my concerns, and I'm sure he'll take them into
account as he moves forward.

Hi,
while trying to get xine 0.5 (xine.sf.net) to work on freebsd I ran into
this problem:
Thread has returned from sigreturn or longjmp
after some debugging I found that disabling this part of the MMX-detection
code:
asm ("pushfl\n\t"
"popl %0\n\t"
"movl %0,%1\n\t"

If you have a freebsd boot cdrom or floppy lying around,
your best bet is to boot into "fixit" mode, and mount the
drive read-write containing your /etc directory.
Use vi or similar to edit /etc/ttys and reboot into single
user mode.
Hope that helps.
