In general I agree, but I think `make buildkernel' should continue to use /usr/obj as to not prevent concurrent crossbuilds. Having `make all' work from .../compile is preferred. I think this difference is acceptable or even unavoidable. Another difference is that make buildkernel should resolve dependencies if possible. They should behave the same in all other aspects, though. -- Marcel Moolenaar mail: marcel@cup.hp.com / marcel@FreeBSD.org tel: (408) 447-4222 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
