Makes me wonder. Did any of you file a PR Wilko> (send-pr is your friend) I was seeing this as well (causing installworld and make release to fail), but since it didn't seem universal, I did some digging. This problem appears to only occur if you set CPUTYPE=p3. Setting CPUTYPE seems to trigger some bug in the compiler/libraries that sh uses (recompiling sh itself doesn't seem to change things). I'm assuming that setting CPUTYPE is still officially unsupported and/or frowned upon, but if someone would like me to file a PR, I'd be happy to. -- Alan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
