Description

Calling madvise() with MADV_WILLNEED is useless on Mac OS X Panther, you'll always get an EINVAL.

From http://dovecot.darwinports.com/ :


# madvise fails on darwin 7 and earlier, but is fixed on darwin 8
if { ${os.platform} == "darwin" && [rpm-vercomp ${os.version} 8.0] < 0 } {
reinplace "s|#define HAVE_MADVISE 1|/* #undef HAVE_MADVISE */|" ${worksrcpath}/config.h
}
}
