gcc-4.5.4 on NetBSD complains: xdm/prngc.c: In function ‘get_prngd_bytes’: xdm/prngc.c:133:2: error: passing argument 1 of ‘atomicio’ from incompatible pointer type xdm/prngc.c:46:16: note: expected ‘ssize_t (*)(int, void *, size_t)’ but argument is of type ‘ssize_t (*)(int, const void *, size_t)’
The problem is that the read(2) and write(2) syscalls differ in the const-ness of their second argument.
