In the past re@ has removed the 'makeoptions DEBUG=-g' from GENERIC when making a stable branch. 6.x doesn't have the foo.symbols changes in it either. It's too late for 6.3, but we should make sure 7.0 has symbols enabled by default still. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
