System: NetBSD horace 1.5.1 NetBSD 1.5.1 (HORACE) #0: Sun Jun 24 12:39:16 BST 2001 root@horace:/export/src/netbsd/cvs/release/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/HORACE i386


>Description:
Cross building -current on a system without the <stdint.h> header file
breaks when compiling usr.sbin/installboot/installboot.c.

This headerfile is not available in pre-C99 systems, therefore some
other mechanism (perhaps autoconf? *duck*) should be used to divine
private definitions of the uintXX_t types.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try cross-building -current under 1.5.1, for example.
>Fix:
A workaround would be to back out some of the changes introduced in
usr.sbin/installboot/installboot.c 1.6.
