The text about using the address as part of the comparison function is not only ineffective but actually results in undefined behavior due to violation of the requirements on comparison functions. It should just be removed. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
