The problem at the moment is that the kernel build is not putting OBJFORMAT=aout into the environment for the tools to see, so they follow what the system is installed as (i.e. /etc/objformat). As jdp pointed out, the -aout switches passed to objformat would solve this, but I was hoping to be able to remove the code in objformat that knows about specific object formats so that it could be used for cross compilation. -- John Birrell - jb@cimlogic.com.au; jb@freebsd.org http://www.cimlogic.com.au/ CIMlogic Pty Ltd, GPO Box 117A, Melbourne Vic 3001, Australia +61 418 353 137 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
