Subject:   HEADSUP: *.So renamed to *.pico

All,

FreeBSD can now be compiled on a case-insensitive file system.
For this to happen, relocatable objects compiled with -fpic (aka
shared objects) were renamed from *.So to *.pico so that they
don’t clash with shared libraries that have extension *.so.

You may want to avoid using an incremental build (after updating
the source tree) or otherwise first rename all *.So files to *.pico.

FYI,
