From: Peter Mutsaers Date: 15 Mar 1997 10:01:14 +0100 Message-ID: <87n2s5msv9.fsf@plm.xs4all.nl> Lines: 14 X-Mailer: Gnus v5.4.25/Emacs 19.34 Sender: owner-current@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello, I just did a make world again, with current (without any problems for the first time since the Lite-2 merge started!). I noted that /usr/libexec/cc* (the C compiler passes) are linked statically, and wonder why? cpp and cc itself are linked dynamically, so it's not as if one could recompile libc in case something would be wrong with libc.so etc. -- /\_/\ ( o.o ) Peter Mutsaers | Abcoude (Utrecht), | Trust is a good quality ) ^ ( plm@xs4all.nl | the Netherlands | for other people to have
