Well .. the posting was not really mine (it was copy-pasted from NetBSD's tech-toolchain) but there are two things to note: - It is WIP, and we certainly have to thank Pathscale for taking the time to port their stuff to FreeBSD. - That it uses gmake is not a showstopper. My understanding is that when the port is finished it will live in the ports tree but if we *really* like it a lot cleaning up the build is not difficult. > Maybe I hit the Linux repo instead of the FreeBSD one ? did > I > misunderstand and '!' is supposed to be '?' in the subject > ?. > Right now we need options.

Furthermore if we could also have a Solaris MDB port with full Dtrace support that would be really great, and if someone finds the code for dbx and decides to work on it I'll be glad about that too.
