That's fair enough..,

Here's what's in there:

# -- use.perl generated deltas -- #
# Created: Sat Dec  4 19:36:28 2004
# Setting to use base perl from ports:
PERL_VER=5.8.5
PERL_VERSION=5.8.5
PERL_ARCH=mach
NOPERL=yo
NO_PERL=yo
NO_PERL_WRAPPER=yo
CPUTYPE?=i686
CFLAGS= -O -pipe
NOPROFILE=     true    # Avoid compiling profiled libraries

That's about it.., Like I said, its a newly installed machine that in the process of being set up - at this stage, its a matter of getting it to 5-Stable.

In keeping with others' suggestions that this might well be symptomatic of RAM issues, I've swapped out all of the RAM and have restarted as per:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
19.4.16.6. What do I do if something goes wrong?

So. I've just kicked off (scripted logging as well) another buildworld, and will post again when this one completes. Unless of course, you determine that this indeed something wrong with the contents of my /etc/make.conf..,

Thanks again.

Regards,

Stacey
