It seemed like the build and host system types were being determined correctly
without specifying the CONFIGURE_TARGET, plus the Porter's Handbook indicates
that in the interest of simplicity it's generally wise to keep things simple.
I figured since the configure stage was apparently smart enough to get it
right there wasn't any reason to specify the CONFIGURE_TARGET manually. If
this is the incorrect way to do things I'll be happy to submit a patch that
utilizes CONFIGURE_TARGET again.
checking build system type... i386-portbld-freebsd6.1
checking host system type... i386-portbld-freebsd6.1
For what it's worth, I see that same warning from configure in a lot of other
ports, so I guessed that the warning was acceptable.
libm...Sounds like it might be useful. :) What would be the best way to fix
this?
Thanks,
Josh

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor
do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger
is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either
a daring adventure, or nothing.
