What's our next step after that?
FYI, I have some addition bug fixes that I will be adding in a new patch set (v3) and will be rebasing to HEAD. Also, I'll make the change from HOST_ABI_DIR to HOST_VARIANT_DIR. The idea is if someone wanted to run, say, OpenBSD targets on a FreeBSD host it would use the code in the bsd-user/freebsd directory to do that. The code would need to support emulation for OpenBSD system calls that are not already natively supported by FreeBSD. Best Regards, -stacey.
