Your question is somewhat unclear, but if you are asking whether FreeBSD builds via the GNU autoconf-based configure system which one runs to generate a Makefile, the answer is, no. > I guess I need to know how you build it? Consult the handbook, "man release", or look at /usr/src/Makefile for the buildworld target. > What compiler you use to build the code? Most commonly, gcc. There's been some work to support icc as well... -- -Chuck
