When I imported queue.h it matches what was in glibc back then. I tried updating queue.h in glibc around the same time, but Uli doesn't like it. Updating the man page to reflected some distro fork of the header doesn't seem like a good idea. And at least five year ago all the maintained BSDs actually had quite different additions to queue.h, so which one to pick would be rather hard and I at least partially understand Uli's rejection. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
