mksh R37c released (no more fm.net broadcasts)

2009-04-07 by tg@
Tags: mksh

The MirBSD Korn Shell R37c has been released. You do not need to update if you are already running R37b, unless one of the following items affects you:

  • Fix a file descriptor bug on Minix 3 (all users are affected, unless their Minix 3 version supports >64 fds already)
  • Support ACK on Minix 3 by means of a workaround
  • Change structure alignment and padding (affects people getting a SIGBUS or sometimes SIGSEGV on strict-alignment arches, e.g. IA64)

Since bsiegert@ has not indicated willingness to take over Freshmeat announcements of mksh releases, and I am almost unable and certainly unwilling to, this ceases our use of said site's services. Please use http://www.mirbsd.org/tag_mksh.rss (Update, as of 2019: now defunct) to keep informed about things related to the MirBSD Korn Shell.
