jh> Have you tried the way that is described in /usr/src/UPDATING? It did jh> work for me a few weeks back. I don't know if it has been broken after jh> that. I hadn't realized that /usr/src/UPDATING was useful on the 4-STABLE branch. It isn't very useful on 3-STABLE. No, I didn't follow the procedure in /usr/src/UPDATING. I did a `make world' and then had to rescue the system. The procedure in /usr/src/UPDATING seems more comprehensive, and also somewhat more terse that what I had posted. If the `make installworld' step there uses the newly built GCC (v2.95.2) then it should work correctly. The use of `__func__', the troublesome GCCism, brought into the 4-STABLE branch of "src/sys/i386/i386/in_cksum.c" on 2000/05/05. Was your upgrade done after this date?
