Trying to build sysutils/fam (nested dependency of wip/gimp-current and
the build fails.

First:

g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../include -DCONFIG_ETC_CONFIG_PATH=\"/usr/pkg/etc/fam.conf\"  -no-cpp-precomp  -O2 -c -o IMon.o `test -f 'IMon.c++' || echo './'`IMon.c++
IMon.c++:39:29: sys/sysmacros.h: No such file or directory
gnumake[2]: *** [IMon.o] Error 1
gnumake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gnumake: *** [all] Error 2
*** Error code 2

Stop.
bmake: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/sysutils/fam


looking at /usr/pkgsrc/sysutils/fam/work/fam-2.6.10/fam/IMon.c++
reveals:

#if !defined(__FreeBSD__) && !defined(__OpenBSD__) && !defined(__NetBSD__)
#  include <sys/sysmacros.h>
#endif

Figuring MacOS X should get the same treatment as the other *BSDs and
not knowing what other symbol to test for, as a quick workaround, just
comment the above block out.

An identical problem occurs with
/usr/pkgsrc/sysutils/fam/work/fam-2.6.10/fam/Interest.c++
and I comment out an identical block of code.


The build then proceeds until:

There seems to be a problem with the intermediate assembly stage.

I've now encountered this same problem when building on MacOS X 10.1.5
using the April 2002 Developer Tools and gcc 3.1 and when building on
MacOS 10.2.8 using the December 2002 Developer Tools and gcc 3.3.

I'm unsure how to proceed, or what to look for, but perhaps the preceeding
information can help point someone to what may be going wrong.

Thanks.
