No, I have only been looking at the pointyhat logs, since I don't have access to a FreeBSD/sparc64 machine. Is there one available to committers? There is no mention on http://www.freebsd.org/internal/machines.html > That may provide more insight into what is going wrong.

If you diff its output between amd64/i386 and sparc64, you see that it specifically differs about whether a number of system calls accept a trailing slash to a file name: chown, lstat, unlink, open, stat. Hundreds of other tests are fine. Anybody with access to a sparc64 can check what make configure for ports/archivers/gcpio reports for their system. I am concerned that linimon@ may have sprinkled BROKEN all over the ports tree based on a bogus build run. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de
