Thanks!! Found the source (it seems the thread was "Panic with amr and
5.4-PRERELEASE"
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2005-March/047479.html ) and a couple of added #include 's and some braces later was able to compile and run it. Seems to provide the basic functionality that I need.
Thanks again,
Sven
