Hi all
I've found some problems while compiling some programs by hand. Lets
say Gabber, which uses mkdir() function. In some systems, like FreeBSD,
a trailing slash is needed for the function to work, while in NetBSD
it is not.
I guess there will be several more cases where programs do not work
well or simply fail when compiling (found some). (I would like to
compile Openoffice for example, but I think it will fail).
So... how much compatible is NetBSD in terms of code compatibility?
Does NetBSD conform better to standards than other systems (posix to
name one)? I hope that this is true ;)
Thanks!

Of course it runs NetBSD - http://www.netbsd.org
