My first question is on which platforms is this broken? I know about Solaris and SunOS, but are there others? If it is broken, then the command echo {1..10} will give {1..10} rather than 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 You should be using beta8 or beta9 to see this (if you have a broken strtol). If only Sun is showing this breakage, then I'll probably write a configure test for this. If this is just me misunderstanding the man page for strtol, then I'll just put zstrtol back. rc
