In message <Pine.BSF.4.21.0004062116510.24423-100000@freefall.freebsd.org> Kris Kennaway writes: : acceptable style for FreeBSD, not to mention probably breaking certain : features we support such as cross-compilation :-) One can almost cross compile OpenBSD. But the almost is due to the zillions of imported files that use the "native" build for the product in question, sometimes slightly tweaked for bmake vs gmake issue. Of course not all of these packages obey things like NOMAN and other settings that the rest fo the system obeys, and every time I've fixed it in the past for some package, a new version of it comes into the tree, or another package crops up, so I stopped after getting stepped on twice. Given how they do things, I'm surprised that cross compiling works as well as it does.
