Hello Kristian,

Have you ever been able to do a buildworld sequence? What version of=20
=46reeBSD are you trying to work with? What does your make.conf look=20
like? How about your /conf/ARBA (your custom kernel config)? What do=20
you have in your /etc/cvsupfile?

In my make.conf I use:
	CFLAGS=3D -O2 -pipe
	COPTFLAGS=3D -O2 -pipe
That's worked for years, well, a very long time anyway.=20

Comparing the same section in your script run, to mine, which was run=20
last night:

yours:
=3D=3D=3D> bin/csh (obj,build-tools)
grep 'ERR_' /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/sh.err.c | grep=20
'^#define' >> sh.err.h
cc -E -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I. -I/usr/src/bin/csh=20
=2DI/usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh -D_PATH_TCSHELL=3D'"/bin/csh"' =20
=2DI/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/include /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib
/tcsh/tc.const.c /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/sh.char.h /usr/src
/bin/csh/config.h /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/config_f.h /usr/src
/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/sh.types.h sh.err.h -D_h_tc_const | grep=20
'Char STR' |  sed -e 's/Char \([a-zA-Z0-9_]*\)\(.*\)/extern Char \1
[];/' |  sort >> tc.const.h

mine:
=3D=3D=3D> bin/csh (obj,build-tools)
grep 'ERR_' /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/sh.err.c | grep=20
'^#define' >> sh.err.h
cc -E -O2 -pipe -I. -I/usr/src/bin/csh=20
=2DI/usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh -D_PATH_TCSHELL=3D'"/bin/csh"' =20
=2DI/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/include /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib
/tcsh/tc.const.c /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/sh.char.h /usr/src
/bin/csh/config.h /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/config_f.h /usr/src
/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/sh.types.h sh.err.h -D_h_tc_const | grep=20
'Char STR' |  sed -e 's/Char \([a-zA-Z0-9_]*\)\(.*\)/extern Char \1
[];/' |  sort >> tc.const.h

They look very similar except: you have -fno-stict-aliasing and I don't;=20
yours starts erroring before buildworld completes (looks to be about a=20
fourth of the way through) and mine builds to completion.

Your buildworld sequence appears to be a little lacking - either in the=20
detail you gave, or because some things are missing.
The buildworld sequence I us is:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D
 (I use the alternate step 10 when I run the sequence)

1)Script /home/script/buildworld/bw-=E2=80=9Ddate run=E2=80=9D
2)cd /usr/obj		pwd
3)chflags -R noschg *
4)rm -rf *
5)cd /usr/src		pwd		make cleandir	make cleandir
6)make buildworld && make buildkernel KERNCONF=3Dcustomconfname
7)make installkernel KERNCONF=3Dcustomconfname
8)exit
9)shutdown now		<Enter>
10) <Enter>			to accept default location of sh

alternate step 10
a)  shutdown -r now		<Enter>
b)  at boot menu	<6>
c)  boot -s			<Enter>
d)  fsck -p			<Enter>
e)  mount -u /			<Enter>
f)  mount -a -t ufs		<Enter>
g)  swapon -a			<Enter>
h)  cd /usr/src			<Enter>
i)adjkerntz -i			<Enter>

11)  script /home/script/buildworld/iw-=E2=80=9Ddate run"
12)  cd /usr/src		pwd
13)  mergemaster -p
14)  make installworld
15)  mergemaster -i		=E2=80=9Cinstall everything=E2=80=9D
16)  exit
17)shutdown -r now
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

This should help a bit.
