<pinotree> pflocal does not support it
<gnu_srs> Is that of interest at all?

+ <braunr> i suspect the "improve the demuxer functions" changes may have
+ hard-to-understand side effects
+ <teythoon> yes, mostly being faster
+ <braunr> ah, the latest sudo has been fixed
+ <braunr> haha :)
+ <teythoon> ^^
+ <braunr> that one is easy to understand :)
+ <braunr> sudo was looping around calls to pflocal
+ <braunr> and exim crashed because of pfinet
+ <braunr> and those servers were only affected by these changes, other than
+ the library ones which don't seem to apply at all
+ <braunr> but with sudo being fixed, i'm not sure it's relevant any more
+ <teythoon> i'd say being faster could easily cause hard-to-understand side
+ effects
+ <braunr> ah, yes
+ <braunr> being faster isn't the side effect itself ;p
+ <braunr> nice, sudo was bugged on linux too, its behaviour matched its hurd
+ version perfectly
