Also it's not safe for 64-bit 'y' on i386, right? Looks like it would cause missing reference to __imoddi3 or whatever it is called. so it can easily be misused IMO. --- ~Randy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
