Ok, finally got some breathing time. Setup with char * eliminated is ~350K. Ouch. This is why I've not committed my patch yet (I've been trying to see *where* the extra 100K appeared from). Chris - is this a problem? IMO it's still a tiny fraction of the total distribution size, and we're reducing the number of reasons a setup update is *required* as we make /etc/profile and so on into packages. If this is not a problem, I expect we can release a new setup after the weekend (or even at the beginning - whatever makes more sense). Rob
