Thanks much! I've made the corresponding changes to my
environment so I think I'm ready to go.
By the way, I added -DNO_WERROR to the list on O'Brien's
suggestion. I removed the -DNOFORTH option; should I also
remove the -DNO_FORTH option? If not, what is the difference?
I did run into another rather strange problem yesterday
and I'm not sure what to do about it. I'm going to have
to post a message to the current mailing list about it
I think.
I stopped a cross-compile in the middle and then restarted.
I got a kernel panic and was dropped down into the debugger
with a complaint that a directory didn't exist (or some such).
I glanced at the kernel dump but didn't save it. After
rebooting into single user mode I ran fsck manually (been
having bad results with background fsck lately) and ended up
finding that my /usr/obj contained "unexpected softupdate
inconsistency"s. I had it fix them and got everything
running again but now I have a directory that shows empty
using every swich on ls but refuses to be removed (even with
a force and after a chflags) with a message that the directory
isn't empty. ?!?! I can change the name but not move it to
another partition.
Any suggestions before I mail the current list? I was really
hoping not to have to newfs this thing and start over. It
doesn't seem to be hurting anything and I suppose I could try
to rename it to something else and just live with it....
Sean

PPC buildworld is done with "-DNOLIBC_R -DNOFORTH". You shouldn't have to
use -DNO_WARN.
DES has a periodic tinderbox build for PPC (and other arches), with the
results up at
http://triangle.rtp.FreeBSD.Org/~des/
That's a good option to see if there's generic build-breakage (e.g. the
recent
/rescue problems, which were fixed as of a few minutes ago).

I think that's a little out of data. The only file that needs to be
patched
now is rs6000/config/freebsd.h, and the diff is at
www.freebsd.org/~grehan/freebsd.h.diff
later,
Peter.
