Re: [Bug: 21.5-b27] open-network-stream-internal hangs if xemacs started before network brought up

Jan> Andre Srinivasan: I haven't a clue, but since nobody else seems at all interested, I'll say that I need a little more localization than that. IIRC (it's been 6 years since I last looked at this stuff) the networking code is a labyrinth of platform-specific shims and special cases; I just don't have time to go digging for stuff that ain't broke for me these days. Jan> (Firefox for example works just fine). FWIW, Firefox (or anything in the Mozilla family) is about the last app I would use as an example of how "only XEmacs" breaks, given the huge amount of effort Mosaic/Netscape/Mozilla have put into working around DNS issues in the last decade. -- School of Systems and Information Engineering http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
