Yes, but then there are all kinds of casting problems. That needs to be fixed too, for systems without umode_t at all, but it led me to the question about umode_t not being in sys/types.h. > You'll need to talk to glibc maintainers as to whether umode_t should > or should not be defined.

As far as i can tell, you have to include asm/types.h to get it; clearly not an option for an autoconf macro. -- Eric Gillespie, Jr. <*> epg@progeny.com Software Developer Progeny Linux Systems - http://progeny.com "I don't know what a Sawfish Window Manager is."Received on Wed Sep 26 17:04:50 2001
