You said FreeBSD binaries crash. Obviously the one that is of interest for COMPAT_FREEBSD users doesn't, so in a way, who cares about the rest? Now, if there are security issues for the kernel, you'd definitely have a case. And there might very well be, but from your initial post it was more about the receiving end of COMPAT_FREEBSD. -- Quentin Garnier - c...@cubidou.net "See the look on my face from staying too long in one place [...] every time the morning breaks I know I'm closer to falling" KT Tunstall, Saving My Face, Drastic Fantastic, 2007.
