Hi.

In comp.unix.bsd you wrote:

I checked it on my NEWS-OS 4.2R; sys/types.h seems to be bug-fixed:

#ifndef _SIZE_T
#define _SIZE_T
typedef long    size_t;
#endif

I have noticed lots of bugs in header files when I was using 4.1R...
(e.g., /usr/include/netinet/in.h)

4.1 is buggy anyway...

There is a dedicated newsgroup "fj.sys.news" in the "fj" newsgroup
hierarchy; your posting would be more effective (i.e., visible to Sony
folks) there...  Just a FYI.
