     52 file	lib/libc/net/getnameinfo.c	: 1.32 : 497 : 503
     53 descr
     54 	Because the current implementation of IP over IEEE1394, the
     55 	fw device address contains more than just the IEEE1394 EUI-64.
     56 	So when printing out IEEE1394 addresses, ignore the extra stuff.

     64 descr
     65 	In order to extend the termcap string over 1023 bytes, a ZZ entry was
     66 	introduced to point to a memory location containing the full entry.
     67 	Without this hack, xterm will export a termcap containing the ZZ
     68 	entry, which will then be ignored by libterm.  As xterm modifies the
     69 	exported termcap, this would cause those modifications to be ignored.

     94 cdate	21 Aug 2003
     95 who	he
     96 file	sys/miscfs/procfs/procfs_linux.c : 1.14
     97 descr
     98 	Not all ports have LINUX_USRSTACK and/or USRSTACK defined as
     99 	literals/constants, but refer to variables of a type which is
    100 	not "unsigned long", causing compilation of procfs_linux.c to
    101 	fail with "makes integer from pointer without a cast".  This
    102 	is observed on e.g. the sun3 port.  Ideally the "types" for
    103 	symbols should be consistent across all ports.

    187 	GCC 4.1 gets many uninitialised variable warnings wrong.  We should
    188 	really audit all the old hacks like this when older compilers are
    189 	removed from the tree, as many are probably no longer required.
    190 	The problem is that it does not recognize initialization via function
    191 	call pointer. I.e.
    192 		int p;
    193 		foo(&p);
    194 	does not mark p as initialized.
