Date: Sun 22-Sep-1989 16:02:58 From: Unknown Subject: NeXT compatiblity with BSD 4.3?? While attempting to install software on a 0.9 cube, I discovered that 2 BSD 4.3 system calls were missing: ----------------------------------------------------------------- BRK(2) UNIX Programmer's Manual BRK(2) NAME brk, sbrk - change data segment size The UNIX system calls brk and sbrk are not supported on the NeXT computer. ------------------------------------------------------------------ How can the NeXT be considered BSD 4.3 compatible? What about software requiring these calls? Are there workarounds?
