++ 28/08/01 10:17 +0200 - Matthias Andree: | What I'm saying is, don't build the Exim port on systems that use | PERL_THREADED. | | What would be the canonical way for /usr/ports/mail/exim/Makefile to | check if PERL_THREADED is enabled and commit suicide if it is? You (well, the exim maintainer) would probably want to add something like: .if defined(PERL_THREADED) BROKEN= "exim does not work with a threaded perl" .endif in the Makefile. If you know why it doesn't work, or if the authors are working on a fix, that would be useful information to include in the BROKEN line too.
