 Hi Martin,
 The GNU assembler doesn't seem to work on the netbsd
 
 netbsd-ws$ type as
 as is a tracked alias for /usr/bin/as
 netbsd-ws$ /usr/bin/as --version
 [1] Bus error /usr/bin/as --version
 
 I tried to compile a simple c program (hello world) and got  cc: 
 internal compiler error: Bus error (program as received signal 10)
 Having said that today I built gcc8 from pkgsrc and worked fine, and as 
 you can see rust and the other dependencies for Firefox where built 
 properly.
 My question though does pkgsrc use the same gcc as base (in FreeBSD it 
 does use the same clang, you can change it but it is not recommended) 
 However from what I read netBSD has 2 gcc instances base and one for 
 pkgsrc (I might be totally wrong here as I am still reading and learning 
 netBSD).
 
 Note: I asked the netBSD irc channel what is the netBSD equivalent to 
 freebsd-update tool, which checks and installs security patches and was 
 told to use sysupgrade. So I have been updating my system as "sudo 
 sysupgrade auto 
 http://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-8/latest/amd64"; and 
 realised I ended up on a  development snapshot of the 8 stable branch.
 
 Thanks so much
 Rami
