I dont know. :-( There are hacks that can work around it, but I think this is unintentional breakage. I tried changing this: #pragma weak foo = bar to __weak_reference(bar, foo); But I didn't get much further since Xfree86 was provoking internal compiler errors. Turning off -O entirely got around it a few times, and then I had more failures with lack of c++ libraries. The end result of all the futzing around ended up with a set of binaries that were basically hosed and usually segfaulted on startup. Shortly after that point, I then managed to panic my system (running 5.x) and said "to hell with it" and did a pkg_add -r to install it instead. I'm in the middle of moving, so I haven't had much more of a chance to look at it. There are GCC bugs involved.
