I found several issues, and suspect there might be some more - it tries to build its library with "-lskey" which fails, apparently lacking libskey.a - when you remove, for the sake of testing, skey from AUXLIBS and auth.h, it later falls prey to the "gcc 3.4 maintainers send varargs users to hell" syndrome. Error message: /usr/include/varargs.h:34:2: #error "<varargs.h> is obsolete with this version of GCC." /usr/include/varargs.h:35:2: #error "Change your code to use <stdarg.h> instead." - when you try to compile it using the gcc295 port, it exchanges this error to a screenful of warnings about how vargs.h redefines stuff from stdio.h, and later it fails with sig.c: In function `handle_sigpid': sig.c:37: storage size of `wstatus' isn't known *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/security/fwtk/work/fwtk/x-gw. Thats the point where I gave up. Apparently there are some issues with fwtk on freebsd5. FWIW, the jumbo patch (enabled with an extra make option, as decsribed in the make file) also fails because there is no md5 file for that. >How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/ports/security/fwtk make >Fix: The varargs thing may or may not be fixable by including <machine/varargs.h> but I don't understand enough of the underlying compiler issues to know if this is a cosmetic or a real fix. In any case, you only run against other issues then. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
