The period of the rotation of the moon around itself is the same as the period of its orbit around the earth. Therefore, the same side always faces the earth (and the other side never faces it, therefore it's called the 'dark side' or, more accurately, the 'far side' of the moon)

http://oprofile.sourceforge.net/
of the three, I believe that jprof and oprofile work on the same principle, only oprofile is system-wide and comes with a kernel module.
for debugging, there are tons of malloc replacements (which may or may not require recompilation) besides electricfence. Obviously, I have no idea what other things boundschecker or purify can do, but I'm sure there must be a tool for most pieces of functionality that these programs provide (but not necessarily all at once).
It is pretty easy to do this using templates and coming up with something like:
integral< 32 > i32;
integral< 128 > i128;
or integral_at_least< 35 > which would give you a 64-bit integer or whatever is fastest and at least that size for any given architecture.
All you have to do is provide specializations for some of the bit sizes and define the others as recursive templates.
This does not have to be part of the compiler, just the standard library.
As for the having-different-signatures part, it is of no use, as far as I can see. The only reason to do that is to maintain binary compatibility in the face of changing type sizes. But this can't happen within the same architecture, so all you need is source compatibility. Besides, as another poster mentioned, it is a major incovenience for users of your code (users as in programmers that use your code).
OK then, what kind of music do you find the meaning of life in? As far as I know, some thrash metal bands have produced the best lyrics there are. As opposed to anything I have heard lately.
That's not to say that you will actually find the meaning of life in thrash, but picking it out is a poor choice. You should have picked on pop music instead. The lyrics there are laughable, to say the least.
Anyone have any idea what the memory footprint of this is? 3.3.6 is eating up 15M and up on my 64mb box. Is this (close to) the minimum an X server can use or is there room for improvement in XFree?
I can only tell you about imlib. It duplicates functionality included in other parts of gnome. So it doesn't really matter whether it had bugs: these can be fixed. But I don't think that raster would go along with removing functionality from it, since he wrote it to be used in places where gnome isn't necessarily available. So the main complaint was duplicated functionality, I think.

Linux 2.3.48 Released

· Score: 1
I think the main problem is that recently Slashdot has been announcing alpha versions of software (gnome, xfree, kernel). Xfree86 might be fine, since it's so close to a release, but especially the 2.3 of the kernel can be a bit flaky at times. Now that slashdot is so widely read, it can lead to a lot of people trying out alpha software without realizing what they're doing. This can be bad for the reputation that this community has of releasing quality software. And it can lead to too many 'newbie' questions when there is no reason this to happen yet.
Anyway, my point is that it is ok if we see announcements like 'kernel 2.2.xx is out', or 'gnome 1.2 is out', but 2.3.xx can cause trouble.
