Hi

I'm using a qube2/netbsd as a firewall and noticed
a security advisory about ipfilter versions prior
to 3.4.29 (the default installed system runs 3.4.27).
So I downloaded netbsd-current from the cvs to
upgrade. But it fails to compile, complaining about
the toolchain utilities it seems.
The error is:
(${TOOLCHAIN_MISSING} != "yes")
make: "/usr/src.cvs/tools/Makefile" line 9: if-less endif
make: "/usr/src.cvs/tools/Makefile" line 9: Need an operator
make: Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
make: "/usr/share/mk/bsd.own.mk" line 92: warning: "cd
/usr/src.cvs/tools && make -V .OBJDIR" returned non-zero status
make: don't know how to make cleanall. Stop

make: stopped in /usr/src.cvs/usr.sbin/ipf

I read somewhere in this ml, that /bin/sh was troublesome
sometimes so I temporally replaced it with bash2.
It goes further but still fails with a similar error.

My question is "how do you succesfully compile netbsd-current from cvs?"

Thanks.

Andre
