Interesting. OpenBSD appears to be somewhat of an outlier here. Since file descriptor 6 is open for writing to a FIFO, one would expect that a stat on /dev/fd/6 would return information about the open file descriptor instead of useless information about the special device itself. I guess we'll have to define DEV_FD_STAT_BROKEN for OpenBSD. You can do it yourself with --enable-dev-fd-stat-broken. -- ``The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne.'' - Chaucer ``Ars longa, vita brevis'' - Hippocrates Chet Ramey, UTech, CWRU chet@case.edu http://tiswww.cwru.edu/~chet/
