I'm full gonzo confused here... I understand the logic of the code
clip, but I don't understand why it's bogus. I should note that I am
still nursing my first FreeBSD machine to life (with no phone line,
this is a task indeed), and have no idea how the make under /usr/src
works. What is the problem with the /usr/src/a/src/lib/libc vs.
/usr/src/usr/src/lib/libc, and indeed, what are these subdirectories?
Thanks,
Piquan
