I can do a buildworld now without any of these flags. I don't know
what the bluetooth issue is/was, but it doesn't kill the build. I
fixed the CDDL issue, and papered over the uath and rescue issues in
the build system.
I can now build a n64 world in -current. I haven't had a chance to
run it yet, but hope to soon. My CN38xx board doesn't like the 32-bit
kernel anymore... It also doesn't like the 64-bit kernel, but I think
that's a uboot issue. It seems older ldscripts didn't tickle the bugs
the current one does (on the other hand, the old ldscripts only worked
on the CN38xx board). On the other hand, SDK 1.9.0's uboot on another
board works fine with the 64-bit kernel.
