Subject:   [FYI] How to build OOo on -CURRENT
Message-ID:  <200704041913.05860.jkim@FreeBSD.org>

The reason for build failures on -CURRENT is because objformat was 
removed from base.  If you don't have it in /usr/bin, that's likely 
the case.  Unfortunately it is hardcoded in many old configure 
scripts for third-party modules including Mozilla, libxml2, 
BerkeleyDB, etc.  The simplest workaround for this problem is to 
write a file with the following three lines:

#!/bin/sh
echo elf
exit 0

Then do:

install -g wheel -o root -m 555 <filename> /usr/bin/objformat

FYI...
