In that case a parse error can be distinguished from other errors. Would 'return -1' do the expected or will it give a compiler warning/error we should avoid? You can't return -1 from a function returning unsigned int. I think you want to return something like MAKE_VERSION(9999, 255, 255) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
