Yes. that's what we do in the rest of the tree, in a variety of stupid ways. > Both binutils and gdb are the same in that regard at least, they both lack aarch64 support. binutils is a bootstrap. gdb isn't. that's how they are different. But both could likely use the forced off solution. I really *HATE* options that are different based on the platform. They cause nothing but problems. Every single time. I'd like to find a better way to cope. REVISION DETAIL https://reviews.freebsd.org/D2005 To: emaste, bdrewery Cc: imp, andrew, freebsd-arm
