Bug#34633: [coolvibe at hackerheaven.org: Re: Fwd: Re: PR ports/31629 (People with access to non-FreeBSD Unix needed to help)]

[Alan Eldridge]

Linux on IA64	chmod OK, potential security hole, need to see what's
      	 	really happening because this is 64-bit.
		
Note: the supplied patch will work for all architectures, guaranteed or
your money back. Yes, I will refund what you paid me for the patch! Really!

Seriously, the patch works because it makes sure that all types match
across the DCOP call from one end to the other.
