I just did a cvsup (20 July 20:09 GMT) and then did a buildworld. There
was a fix made to if_dc.c at 02:01:26 20 July to fix a bogus '(' that
was breaking building a kernel.
I hadn't built a kernel.GENERIC since 20 Nov 2000. So, I built it as
soon as my buildworld finished. The log produced shows
cc -O -pipe -march=pentiumpro -D_KERNEL -Wall -Wredundant-decls
-Wnested-externs -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes
-Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wcast-qual
-fformat-extensions -ansi -DKLD_MODULE -nostdinc -I- -I. -I@
-I@/../include
-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -c
/usr/src/sys/modules/dc/../../pci/if_dc.c
ld -r -o if_dc.kld if_dc.o
touch __miibus_hack_dep.c
cc -shared -O -pipe -march=pentiumpro -D_KERNEL -Wall -Wredundant-decls
-Wneste
d-externs -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith
-Winline -Wc
ast-qual -fformat-extensions -ansi -DKLD_MODULE -nostdinc -I- -I. -I@
-I@/../i
nclude -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -o miibus __miibus_hack_dep.c
gensetdefs if_dc.kld
My system didn't have any problem building the "dc" driver using a
current cvsup.
