I'm surprised you could do it at all with only 50 MB of swap. :-) It's actually building modula-3-lib that requires so much swap. Building CVSup itself isn't too bad. People with limited swap who really want to build CVSup from the sources should install the "modula-3-lib" and "modula-3" _packages_ first. Then build the "cvsup" port. -- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
