I know that the ___error problem spawns from a libc version conflict. The last time I had current on this box they switched the libraries over, and the next day's build exploded. I remembered the discussion from -hackers about it, copied /usr/lib to /usr/lib/aout, re-ldconfig'd, and the build went smoothly. Also, the above published solution has not exploded yet .. It's chewing on liF77 now. (building from work over dialup just doesn't do great things for speding up the build.) I just remembered I have MACHINE_ARCH and BINFORMAT defined in make.conf; hope that doesn't confuse anything. > make -m /usr/src/share/mk buildworld > make -m /usr/src/share/mk installworld I'm not too much in favor of sticking -current-isms in the FAQ, but we could make an exception. Or Nik could drop it onto the tutorial (which was one of the places I checked, along with /usr/src/Makefile and the commit logs for said Makefile and make.conf).
