If you use and/or sell System V Release 4 you may want to fix up your <sys/unistd.h> file. It probably contains: extern int execv(const char *, char *const *); extern int execve(const char *, char *const *, char *const *); extern int execvp(const char *, char *const *); I'm fairly sure that these declarations should be changed to: extern int execv(const char *, const char *const *); extern int execve(const char *, const char *const *, const char *const *); extern int execvp(const char *, const char *const *); If your company sells V.4 ports to the general public (either on your company's own hardware or on somebody else's) I encourage you to fix this annoying little problem in the systems that your company distributes to its customers. Please don't make us all suffer with this annoying glitch.
