system compiler in -CURRENT that doesn't even compile a hello world if
-pedantic is specified and breaks with lots of existing software out there
that tries to use a threads library because -pthread errors out (why could this change not have been made _after_ 4.9 is out the door, btw.? Or before 5.0-R FWIW.)
Are we expecting people to be able to compile software directly from the commandline at all these days and in the future on a (stable) FreeBSD-5?
Is the decision criterion for making acceptable changes to core system components that we can somehow make 3rd party software compiling via ports-collection hacks?
I feel that a FreeBSD that manages to break so many existing configure-scripts and build systems is degraded in usefulness.
