For starters, I would like to know whether the static binary (ports/net/cvsup-bin) works or not under the very latest -current on the i386. Could somebody please check that and report back to the list? I can't sacrifice my i386 -current machine to the cause right now. Also, for those of you who are experiencing problems: Please state as precisely as possible: - which vintage of -current are you running? - what is the output from "cvsup -v"? - is "cvsup" a static binary or is it dynamically linked? - did you build it, or did you simply install a binary? - if you built it, when did you build it? Note, you are going to have trouble getting much out of the core dumps from the binaries, because they're a.out. I've placed an unstripped ELF binary here if you'd like to help out by getting a stack trace: http://www.freebsd.org/~jdp/cvsup-16.0.gz The compressed file is about 2.3 MB in size.
