I don't observe any singe problem so far. : : This has revealed another issue on RELENG_6 while rafan@ did the MFC. : The problem is that the installworld process needs sh(1), but a : dynamically linked sh(1) will require ncurses libraries, which calls : ctype.h (and in turn _ctype.h), so inherited requires the new symbol. : Unfortunately on RELENG_6 libc.so is not forced to be installed first, : so once ncurses libraries are updated, it refuses the old libc.so bits : as it does not provide the required symbol. : : I have discussed this with rafan@ and he committed a workaround, which : is to MFC src/lib/Makefile,v 1.221. On RELENG_7 and HEAD we already : have the change so it's not a problem for these branches. : : Hopefully we can find out a way of making newly compiled binaries : backward compatible with the old RELENG_6 world? Maybe we should make them *NOT* be inline instead of all these kludges? Warner
