Next message: websrvr: "Re: IMAPD Mail Delays"
I'm finally getting around to upgrading my 2.3.7 system to 2.3.9. When I
put in 2.3.7 I had to patch a few things to make it work properly on
64-bit SPARC, mainly unaligned dereferences causing BUS faults due to
the SPARC MMU.
Thankfully 2.3.9 has most of these sorted, mainly through using align_htonll()
and friends to force aligned accesses, but at least one place still
causes a crash for me.
Here's the patch, could it be included in the next release? I did send
the patches to at the time but never got a
response, nor did they get fixed in subsequent releases so apologies if
anyone feels this is the wrong forum for this.
