It's a cruddy language. Whatever. There's no need for you to waste time on lecturing me on C++, I know it well enough, including the pitfalls. And I especially know well about C++'s NULL, I got enough theoretical lectures from gcc people while making them not bury warnings about incorrect NULL usage in the rather useless -Wconversion. The reality is what it is regardless of how much you or I like it. How about the patch? Are there any *actual* problems with it or can it please go in? -- Lubos Lunak l.lunak@suse.cz
