Hi Martin,
Thanks for your reply, and sorry for my delayed response - a dodgy mail
filter misfiled this email. /sigh
The only source I've been able to find related to Apple is from the Open
Darwin website, which works the same as your source. ie. the only source
I can find from Apple, doesn't work the same as their binary.
My assumption is that I'm looking in the wrong place or missing a patch,
so if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.
I shall keep looking, in any case.
Thanks,
Rob
