rpm-4.3-mnttab.patch

just a workaround
Comment 2 Jeff Johnson 2005-01-28 18:15:10 UTC 
What's needed is autocrap test for getmntinfo(2)
parallel to existing getmntinfo_r(2) tests. Mac OS X
appears to lack getmntinfo_r, but has getmntinfo(2).
Comment 3 Jeff Johnson 2005-02-07 19:34:54 UTC 
Fixed in rpm-4.4.1-0.13 by adding autoconf check for getmntifo.
