Good point - but also raises, whether to look for this struct in the first place. Why not skip it all, and define it ISO C compliant, in php_ namespace?
    That would be a possibility, although you never know how
    engineers at some random company interpreted the standard text
    (if they had access to it at all) and how they might have
    simply copied things from another OS in their own broken way.
So I'm for removing detection and provide the struct in php_sysvmsg.h. If 'some random company' turns out to be a major OS vendor, we (hopefully) pick it up in QA cycle. Patch for that is attached, compiled and tested on FreeBSD 4.6. Opinions? With kind regards, Melvyn Sopacua <?php include("not_reflecting_employers_views.txt"); ?>
