Thanks, that's helpful. I'll introduce an ISA_SLOTS private symbol, then. Later perhaps we can actually make this distinction in C code; sounds like it would be a good idea. -- <a href="http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/">Eric S. Raymond</a>
The biggest hypocrites on gun control are those who live in upscale developments with armed security guards -- and who want to keep other people from having guns to defend themselves. But what about lower-income people living in high-crime, inner city neighborhoods? Should such people be kept unarmed and helpless, so that limousine liberals can 'make a statement' by adding to the thousands of gun laws already on the books?" --Thomas Sowell - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
