Hi,

I do like some of the inline compiler tests.

I guess that the way the errno's are done like the other OS's have done
as well?
I'd normally solve this with a static array, and just index it.
But perhaps the compiler is smart enough to do the same.


I see that you have disabled uuid?
Might I ask why?

I Suggest you have a look at the issue Alan brought up.
Which is a possible fix for doing it the other way around:
	Linux clients on a FreeBSD "cluster"
But as Sage suggest: Could be very well solved by fixed brougt in for AIX.
