Hi!
This is still happening with FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE, as I have just
discovered. The hack works like a charm, but seems kind of odd... :)
Any progress in getting a "real" fix into the repository? Any risks with
the hack - is it likely to believe that it will suddenly or sporadically
fail?
Cheers,
Palle
