A problem here is that programs aren't and shouldn't be written solely for the Hurd. They should! What would the point be of the GNU system if they aren't? This is a GNU project after all, and the goal is to produce a concise system, the GNU system. Not a bunch of programs that can run on any platform out there. The only thing one should worry about is portability across architectures, but across systems it is pointless.
They _shouldn't_! Why do we have standards like POSIX.
But chroot exists, and if you replace it by a library call, nobody will use it. One can also always fix chroot()/file_reparent(). _______________________________________________ L4-hurd mailing list address@hidden http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/l4-hurd
