Re: osendfile() silliness

:>    the version MFC'd to -STABLE the same day was placed in an #ifdef

:
:imo, the kernel should be less complex. so you are right in nuking it.
:..but, when you succeeded with splitting sendfile, 'osendfile' should maybe
:go to our binary emulation (for fbsd 4).

:just my 2¢

:~ibotty

    Yah, I agree.  Nuke it :-)
