Re: CVS commit: src



While there was no discussion, it is more efficient to have the discussion
whether we should put it back or not (instead of putting it back first and
having the discussion). Of course we should fix the build first since it seems
to be broken.

The reality of the situation is that the syscall race has been there for months
and nobody has taken responsibility to fix it. The code is in version control,
so someone should fix it first and then we can discuss if we should bring it
back.
