In this specific case, there were no compile messages output, as the |

files are all in bash. |

And I agree with Chris, I warned the users in the ebuild, and if they |
| 10 |
didn't see it, no matter how many blinking lights, and other bright |
| 11 |
shiny ways of reporting the message, people would have missed it. |

And in the end, everyone who did stumble accross the issue, learned a |
| 14 |
bit more about how the kernel, modules, and userspace interacts and came |
| 15 |
away with more understanding. Which is always a good thing. |

Just wait till we make the kernel automatically upgrade from 2.4 to 2.6 |
