This raises two points that need to be bikeshedded:
(1) What's the new tool called, and where does it live in the tree?
"usr.bin/makesyscalls" is fine with me but ymmv.
"usr.bin/makesyscalls" sounds good to me.
Uh? usr.bin is where stuff for /usr/bin is located, right? Anything
there should be pretty normal tools that any user might be interested
in. Don't seem to me as makesyscalls would be a tool like that?
As config(1) is in /usr/bin that seems the best place for makesyscalls
too.
Ouch! What a rabbit hole! I should be quiet now. :-)
(I don't really think config makes any sense at all to have in
/usr/bin... ;-) )
I would expect that the generated files would have the developer uid and
gid, I wouldn't want them owned by root.
I guess I fail to see the problem there. That all depends on who is
running it, and where the files are placed. Don't really matter where
the tool is located.
