I understand your concern. However without this, the database will
not get dumped on Solaris 9 when the milter is stopped. I guess there
should be some callback in the libmilter (maybe the xxfi_abourt()?) to
handle this.

  I'll keep the patch around maybe #ifdef:ed so it works as it should
in Solaris 9.


Is 1.5.8 considered as stable as 1.5.3? Could I run this on a production
system (and thus test the peer-patch)?
