Hello,

I know that with the current version(s) of glibc, qmail (and related) require a patch for errno to work correctly (see attached patch for qmail). I am 99.99999% convinced that numerical expressions are not evaluating correctly under my RH8 system. For instance, in my mailfilter file, the following evaluates to TRUE: VAR=0 if ($VAR != 0) This cannot be possible, right? I mean, 0!=0 should return FALSE, right?!? Anyway...

What I am wondering is a couple things...first, is it possible that configure is not correctly detecting the version of glibc and, thus, is not accounting for the errno version properly? Second, are there other libraries or headers that are required for these expressions or if statements to work correctly, but perhaps are not getting checked properly by the configure script?

Any insights, suggestions, or ideas for further troubleshooting are greatly appreciately. I would particularly like to hear from Sam V. on these questions.

Thank you!
