Trying to make world today and last night, with fairly up-to-the-minute source, I keep bombing out with: `/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/cc_tools/../../../../contrib/egcs/gcc/config/i386/i386. md' is up to date. `genattr.c' is up to date. `gencodes.c' is up to date. `genconfig.c' is up to date. `genemit.c' is up to date. `genextract.c' is up to date. `genflags.c' is up to date. `genopinit.c' is up to date. `genoutput.c' is up to date. `genpeep.c' is up to date. `genrecog.c' is up to date. `gencheck.c' is up to date. `gengenrtl.c' is up to date. `gengenrtl.c' is up to date. `gengenrtl.c' is up to date. `genattrtab.c' is up to date. `gencheck.c' is up to date. `c-parse.in' is up to date. `gencheck.c' is up to date. `c-parse.in' is up to date. ===> cc_int make: don't know how to make insn-attrtab.c.

kernel size over the last week
I just built a kernel, from sources cvsupped last night. It's over 2 megs in size, compared to 1.3 megs for a kernel built from the same config file four days ago. Is this due to the change in the debugging symbol policy? file(1) reports both kernels as 'ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, not stripped'.

Again, from my readings it seems that Solaris has the latter policy. Does anyone know if this is true? This would seem to put paid to the idea that overcommit is the only way to go.

I seem to recall that there was a lot of noise about the instability of 3 before it was released, but that it went out the door because it had been taking too long. Wasn't it Greg Lehey who said that the "beta period" seemed more like "integration testing"? Ben "You have your mind on computers, it seems."

Isn't that adequately covered by the PAWS extension from RFC 1323?
