I'm trying to do a buildworld with /usr/src mounted read-only (via NFS).
The buildworld has died several times trying to remove .o files, binaries,
and libraries (*.so.*) from /usr/src that happened to be hanging around.
Ok, I say... cd /usr/src on the physical machine and 'make clean'.
Only problem is it doesn't work... it does not recursive through the entire
source hierarchy. For example, make clean in /usr/src does not bother
recursing through /usr/src/bin, /usr/src/sbin, /usr/src/gnu, etc...
It is *very* annoying. Is there any particular reason why make clean
in /usr/src does not clean the entire source hierarchy?
Also, having to restart the buildworld from scratch every time it blows
up and exits is also quite annoying. It would be nice to have a
'rebuildworld' target that uses dot files similar to the way bsd.port.mk
uses them to pick up where it left off.
