This is > de-facto blocker for the 10.0. having a "ports compiler" means having a full toolchain for ports, which has lots of collision with the toolchain in base system. As far as I know, ther= e was no consensus at all, but some of us are working on a ports toolchain to see= how it goes. All the problem (most at least) we find with clang from base are the same we will have to fight with with recent gcc, plus recent gcc brings recent binu= tils which will give us even more headache (the same we will have to face one day with mclinked). We are close to have the full ports tree working working on 10 may that be = by directly support clang or using the USE_GCC macros allowing to choose a gcc= from ports if needed. regards, Bapt --J/dobhs11T7y2rNN Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlG3e3cACgkQ8kTtMUmk6ExzogCfaa3/85XLP0T54s+AUx3s0/we bRYAnRE/2c0/VQ55N48FdmAmLGsr47QF =RYPg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --J/dobhs11T7y2rNN--
