FreeBSD doesn't "insist" on the use of old versions of file -- it is

You may also want to look at our system libvgl ( vgl(3) ),

Most of these questions are more suitable for the freebsd-stable or

I am attempting to reconcile this with Colin's rationale in terms of
congruence classes over rings Z/nZ. ;)
