Geeze what are you talking about?  You don't think there is opposition to
Jacques commit and anything like it?  Do I need to list all the names of
us that didn't like the commit that started all this?  So what if some
symbols are already hidden.  I and other don't like that either -- but it
seems we have to tolerate that for a threading library.  

"loud", "full command"... if you think there is or can be any consisenses
of this issue in the freebsd-arch@ list, you haven't been reading the
thread.  Do you really think this issue can be settled in this forum
right now??  Geeze.
