Cp(1) is now careful to close an already open file if it detects the `cannot copy file to itself' situation. Previously a command like `cp * .' would bomb out with too many open files. This bug was definitely of the pathological variety; it is dificult to imagine realistic situations when it would have been a problem. -- David Trueman @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!david
