Yes, but they mostly do this to use the macros to get around gas brokennes with respect to 16-bit x86 code. With the new gas that will all go away. We will then be left with a few config variables, which can be handled with 'as --defsym BAR=FOO', so no need for cpp(1) there. >> The actual src/sys *.s files are 1.4MB in total.

Repo-copies copy the entire RCS file, though, so the effective bloat of repo-copying all the .s files to .S would add 1.4MB to the repository. > Bruce -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
