Hi, As a follow-up on my message for bug #17785, I'm not sure whether we can get this fixed, especially since I haven't heard/seen from the original developers of the extension on this issue. Currently sysvsem.c is incompatible with FreeBSD and when a semaphore is removed it crashes (using the example code in the notes for the documentation). This does not happen with BSD/OS and looking at the man page for FreeBSD, the passing of the union semun to sem_ctl is dependant on the command issued. SO - all in all - this will need proper attention and testing on different platforms, and I'm not sure there's enough time. Let me know what you would like to do with it. Met vriendelijke groeten / With kind regards, Webmaster IDG.nl Melvyn Sopacua <@Logan> I spent a minute looking at my own code by accident. <@Logan> I was thinking "What the hell is this guy doing?" http://www.geekissues.org/quotes/top50.html?6824
