Thank you. I didn't do this as normally we're pretty conservative about
this sort of change, but now they are fixed, it just plain makes sense.
I suspect Boost.Interprocess doesn't work on FreeBSD yet -- it needs
sem_t's shared between processes. Does anybody have work in progress for
this? We are in 8.0 freeze right now and it would be great to be able to
sort this out, IF someone has it up their sleeve. This was recently
bashed around on -STABLE.
cheers
