That's an outright lie. It is not a lie, Charles. You incorporated code based on 4.4 kern_clock.c and init_main.c that Chris got you off vangogh. Perhaps you rewrote some of the pieces, I don't know how much of it. But you DEFINATELY had those 4.4 files in your hands, and you were cloning the interface. Of course then the interface changed before 4.4lite came out.. -- This space not left unintentionally unblank. deraadt@theos.com
