Actually, that's an excellent commit and I commend amdmi3 on it. It will help both our users and our developers. It clearly states to users that their system is unsupported and explains how they can bypass the check if they know what they are doing. That's far better than users getting strange build or runtime failures that require investigation and potentially emails to work out what's wrong. >That's largely irrelevant and hardly ever causing problems.

And you are doing so in the clear knowledge that what you are doing is not supported by the FreeBSD Project. -- Peter Jeremy
