The idea is not new. Setting CROSS_BUILD_TESTING during the buildworld addressed similar issues at a time I wrote it, to compare cross builds to native ones, with several exceptions. I haven't tested it for years, so things might have changed, but it's still a good idea to give it a try. _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
