The following reply was made to PR misc/4395; it has been noted by GNATS.

By a previous `make' where /usr/src/secure did exist. I've posted this on behalf of a friend who's been hit by it for the second time... I believe it's bogus to check for `exist(secure)' in the /usr/obj hierarchy, that's why i've made it a PR. -- J"org Wunsch Unix support engineer joerg_wunsch@interface-business.de http://www.interface-business.de/~j
