It's pointless compiling the module if it's not going to provide anything. Failing to load it with zmodload is a much more transparent way of finding that the feature isn't available. Otherwise, you're lulled into a false sense of security about something which could fail to work in a lot of different ways --- as in this case, we're not always concerned just with builtins. These multiple possible failure modes are asking for trouble. -- Peter Stephenson Software Engineer CSR Ltd., Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WH, UK Tel: +44 (0)1223 692070 ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
