Hi,

I was just complaining to the appropriate people about GUSI and MSL,
fdopen() being the place where things went wrong.

Matthias Neeracher suggested Inserting the following definition (ahead of
all MSL libraries):

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
FILE * __find_unopened_file();
FILE * __handle_reopen(int fd, char * type, FILE * f);
#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

FILE *fdopen(int fildes, char *type)
{
	FILE			*str;

	if (!(str = __find_unopened_file()))
		return(0);

	return(__handle_reopen(fildes, type, str));
}

In case this helps

Doug
