<FONT color=#0000ff size=4> > why did you introduce a dependency to the new m3core</FONT><BR><BR>
I had removed link because it wasn't used, and/or didn't introduce it the first builds of e.g. AMD64_LINUX.<BR>
<BR>
Link naturally goes in m3core/src/unix.<BR>
<BR>
However implementing it locally in cm3 is reasonable.<BR>
I should have tried harder on a clean local unshared solution.<BR>
Not <EM>every </EM>.c file needs m3unix.h<EM>, </EM>though I am comforted by using it, that I have things all setup well and portably.<BR>
<EM></EM> <BR>
Waitpid changes similar, you'll recall.<BR>

<DIV><FONT class=EC_Apple-style-span color=#0000ff face="'Gill Sans'"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: medium" class=EC_Apple-style-span>Yes, now I remember. We need to build a new compiler (from the new m3front) in order to compile features (LONGINT) in the new m3core. This implies the need for compilations upstream of m3core to function with both old and new versions. So, my question now is why did you introduce a dependency from the new cm3 to the new m3core? That should probably be avoided.</SPAN></FONT></DIV></SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></SPAN></DIV></SPAN></DIV></SPAN></DIV><BR>

<BLOCKQUOTE><SPAN></SPAN> <BR><SPAN>I don't understand. Right, if you want to move stuff around, LD_LIBRARY_PATH is one solution. $origin is another.

Plus, LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not scoped to a particular executable, unless you use wrapper scripts. /etc/ld.so.conf or such on birch including /usr/local/cm3/lib broke my own use of my $HOME/cm3/bin, because those binaries are supposed to use $HOME/cm3/lib, but there is (often) just one LD_LIBRARY_PATH, again, unless you write wrapper scripts.</SPAN><BR><SPAN></SPAN> <BR>
<DIV>If we force everyone to install to /usr/local/cm3 or /opt/cm3, the issue is reduced, granted<BR></DIV>
