Hi, JIC you haven't noticed, the latest TenDRA CVS logfile
reports:

"Unfortunately FreeBSD 5.x uses the GNU C extension
__attribute__((__aligned__(x))) in a couple of system headers
(<machine/npx.h>, <machine/signal.h> and <machine/ucontext.h>
for i386).  To avoid a syntax error __aligned(x) is removed by a
#define, but programs that use struct sigcontext, struct savexmm
or mcontext_t probably won't work."

cheers,

   Pedro.
