I happen to agree that this is a good move for FreeBSD, but it breaks the fundemental part of FreeBSD is that you can buildworld to w/o any dependancies on the target... I thought we were working to the point that we could build a mips world on an x86 box?? w/ this, it completely breaks it... the whole idea of a buildworld is that the tools can be build on ANY platform and run, (assuming the tools support it) and then be able to build the target... might as well say goodbye to ever getting freebsd's userland running under NetBSD which is how our nice Alpha port got started... this NEEDS to be fixed... -- John-Mark Gurney Voice: +1 408 975 9651 Cu Networking "The soul contains in itself the event that shall presently befall it.
