It crashes with things like: Hmm. in some of these days the cc should change (to egcs or such, don't know exaclty). See the last HEADS-UP mail to -current. > Alexander Langer wrote: > > Yes.

It will boot with some warnings but you can build everything. Only xdm didn't work for me, I had to startx manually. BTW: Thas has been on -current a while ago, see the archives for the reasons why you need this. Search for some "HEADS UP" mails. Alex -- I doubt, therefore I might be.
