The former is more of a statement of "it will never work"; the latter is more of a statement of "it doesn't work right now." So, in my own patches for e.g. sparc64, I use .if ${ARCH} == "sparc64" BROKEN= Does not compile on sparc64 .endif unless the port bails out of config with "arch not supported", or it's clearly i386-hardware-related, or something like that. I recognize that this may be a matter of personal taste. mcl
