One thing I noticed was that there's now a freebsd target in config.guess, but it doesn't work because there isn't any freebsd target in config.sub. This is trivial to fix. A bigger problem is that gdb/solib.c doesn't compile for -current. I haven't had time to do more than note this fact. What happens with 2.1 or earlier versions I can't say. I only run -current. The code in bfd seems to be correctly done, at least it compiles with FBSD specific stuff. > Couldn't someone who knows the reasons why, communicate them to Cygnus, > and get us on their list of supported systems? I'll put this on my TODO list. I'm planning to port the newest gdb RSN. Gary Jhelp
