To make a long story short though one of my build attempts, I forgot to copy the /etc/src.conf file to the new system. And well the problem was gone, when I discovered that's what I did differently, I commented out all lines on a different system rebuilt and installed, sure enough it worked. Looking at the src.conf options that I was using, I can't see how any option other than the WITHOUT_PROFILE could possibly be causing the problem. Though I am in the process of building systems with different options removed in an attempt to find out for sure. The WITHOUT_PROFILE was added from a help document I read some time ago about upgrading from source, and hasn't caused any problems before now. I know it instructs the build process to avoid compiling profiled libraries. But my searching hasn't been able to lead me to what the difference is between a profiled and non-profiled library is. -- Thanks, Dean E. Weimer http://www.dweimer.net/
