Hello.

I applied the dostrerror(), fcntl() and flock() + *lockf() patches. I get
the same results as you, but the output has file descriptor 7 rather than
5. (Please note that I did my tests on a copy of unmodified sources from
CVS, with Peter's patches.) I tested in the same conditions as you, Peter.

Tests I ran:

tests/libc/posix/fcntl/fcntl3gb.exe
tests/libc/posix/fcntl/tfcntl.exe
tests/libc/posix/fcntl/tfcntl2.exe
tests/libc/compat/unistd/tllockf.exe
tests/libc/compat/unistd/tlockf.exe
tests/libc/posix/sys/file/tflock.exe

If I've missed any, please tell me and I'll run them.

Why is this required? gas seems to produce the same code for lcall. Does
it not do the right thing for ljmp? I can retest with the patch, if you'd
like.

Bye, Rich =]
