I think /usr/src, for all valuses of /usr/src, is the right place to do this. Do it like the ports tree does things now. However, I'd be loathe to force people to set BSDSRCDIR when building the system just to get this. It would allow people to have different build trees with different settings on the same machine, which is desirable. eg I have a beefy server machine that gets everything, I have a client that gets a subset or build with certain compile time things turned off. The client is so slow things get built on the server for it... Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
