It's probably bogusly expecting to poll on a file. Hmmm... I guess I did break the interface slightly.

Try adding this code to vop_stdpoll:

if ((ap->a_events & ~POLLSTANDARD) == 0) return ((ap->a_events & (POLLRDNORM|POLLWRNORM)));

That will restore the old behavior of always returning true for those requests. If that fixes it...

That fixes it. No more netscape hangs during file cache reads.

thanks.
