I also use this when I'm trying to build -current kernels on a -stable machine and vice versa. : I would have not started this, were I not been told to compile the FreeBSD : kernel under NetBSD :-) As such, it may yet compile tonight. I'd also consider adding -U__NetBSD__ to your command compiles as well, otherwise things may get very confusing.... BTW, $< is the source file for the make rule. From the make man page: .IMPSRC The name/path of the source from which the target is to be transformed (the ``implied'' source); also known as `<'.
