Hi John,
I found a remake of whetstone.c test (original one came from UNIX world
as I could understand) on one NetBSD FTP mirror. I would not want to
paste URL address now, but it leaves under 'NetBSD/packages/distfiles'
directory. Can it be "a pass"? Also there is another test 'flops.c' (it
calculates the MFLOPS value) in the NetBSD packages.
Both of NetBSD sources can be dig with a 'FileWatcher' Search Engine:
http://www.filewatcher.com
Can you, please, check copyright header for that whetstone.c (1.2) from
NetBSD packages?
IANAL and I would withdraw my questions if NetBSD trunk is not (C)-pass.
Thank you,
Sergei
