>Environment:
Build host:
System: NetBSD daisy 1.5K NetBSD 1.5K (DAISY) #176: Fri Nov 24 07:41:01 JST 2000 root@daisy:/usr/obj/sys/arch/i386/compile/DAISY i386
Target host:
System: NetBSD donald 1.5K NetBSD 1.5K (TOKOCHAN) #0: Tue Nov 21 12:12:05 JST 2000 minoura@daisy:/tmp/TOKOCHAN x68k
>Description:
When lint(7) is built, ${.OBJDIR}/${PROG}, i.e. lint1 which is just built
is executed in usr.bin/xlint/lint1/makeman shellscript called from
usr.bin/xlint/lint1/Makefile.
This breaks cross compilation.
>How-To-Repeat:
Do cross compile in usr.bin/xlint/lint1.
>Fix:
Unknown. Possible strategies include:
- Use /usr/libexec/lint1 on the build host. This assumes that the build
host and the target host has the same OS, same version.
- Build lint1 with HOST_CC and other tools.
- sed or awk over usr.bin/xlint/lint1/err.c
- Create a separate message list which is used to build err.c and lint.7.
