I already explored that possibility. There was also nothing in the man page (at least on my box) that indicated that a non-null would cause it to fail. It's a superfluous argument, not a detrimental one. It doesn't surprise me at all that it works. That being said, if it were a "real" program and not just a simple syscall test, I would have changed it appropriately.<br>
