Hmph. While I would want things to be portable, I prefer to avoid platform specific #ifdef and conditional Makefile constructs.

I'll keep this in the proposed updates queue until somebody comes up with a bit cleaner solution.

By the way, Johannes, what mailer do you use? Many of your patches seem to be whitespace damaged. For example:

Show 12 quoted lines

The empty line before daemon_usage[] line should start with a single SP but your message does not seem to have it. I double checked with the copy marc has:
