In message <199608071850.LAA28695@freefall.freebsd.org>, "Justin T. Gibbs" writ es: >>In any case, if we bring in gcc, bringing in the *entire* distribution >>would be a big mistake IMHO. The usefulness of other parts is minimal >>at best, and the cost is spectacularly large in terms of disk space. >>Heck, the entire gcc 2.7.2 distribution is bigger than bin, include, >>libexec, sbin, and usr.bin combined. :( > >Why not import the whole thing but only distribute the i386 code by >default? We can easily setup additional CVSup targets for the non >i386 portions of the compiler for people interested in cross compiling >or working on a new port.
