There is COPTFLAGS for that reason. I've also made a PR about this new, unwanted behaviour, but haven't got any answers so yet. >The kernel build failed when it tired to compile the r128drm device. > >Is it safe to run the ULE scheduler instead of the 4BSD scheduler, ULE >is commented out in the default kernel? > > > It's nice for me. I had a general protection fault, but I can't prove, that ULE made that, I had similar with 4BSD. FreeBSD 6 is quite stable for me when I don't use my nve network interface that has a poor driver. >Is the new ATA RAID stuff, metadata something, going to be backported >to 5.x?
