Re: -march=pentium2 + -mtune=pentium4 faster then -march=pentium4?

The 3.4 branch is closed. You must use newer versions or better GCC mainline svn.

Re: swap at beginning of slice - danger?

So the problem could arise only in unusual circumstances. IMHO this is a very dangerous assumption since theres is no fixed layout specified. I always have swap as first partition (starting at offset 0). That way it was pretty easy switching to (g)vinum.

Re: Upgrading 5.3 6.0 buildworld failure in libkrb5

Maybe you should update to the latest 5-STABLE before uprading to 6-STABLE. I have tried with very helpful advice from freebsd-questions contributors: with and without ccache 3x make cleandir prior to build additional cvsup of source tree I always build with an empty /usr/obj. /usr/src/kerberos5/lib/libkrb5/../../../crypto/heimdal/lib/krb5/changepw.c:170: error: syntax error before chpw Dou you need kerberos? I disabeled it through a knob in /etc/make.conf. Check /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf for details. Last weekend I upgraded my 5-STABLE installation to 6-STABLE and all went smoothly. First I built 6-STABLE from 5-STABLE, activated it and then I built 6-STABLE again.

While I like that suggestion personally, some people get perturbed about files in /tmp going away if the power fails or you reboot. I wish mount_mfs would be smarter on post 4.x systems. Using mount_mfs means it works in compatibility mode. This might seem to be a good idea but it praxis it prevents tuning the mfs parameters: in mfs mode I can't set UFS version, I can't inhibit the .snap directory.

Re: Linking problems with gcc 3.4.2 and glibc on 5.3-stable

The above isn't using the ports collection, right? Thus your complaint is not justified. You simply blame the compiler. Yes, compilers have bugs but the do evolve too. And in this case GCC 3.4.x catches a bug _in_ the source that previous GCC versions missed. however if I install gcc 3.3.6 and then edit the top line in Makefile to cc = gcc33 then it compiles fine. You really should have looked at the place GCC complained about: it _is_ a bug in the source! There is a label and no statement after the label. Add a ; and it will compile. Older GCC versionss accept that. I will as you suggest try a later gcc in the 3.4.x branch as there is newer version then what is bundled in 5.3 and I will report back. I would suggest that you update+use ports because the ports-collection has a patch for this particular problem: files/patch-tools-convconf.c I havent test ezbounce with 3.3.6 yet. This is C++ and probably a different issue.
