Building with gcc 4 does not work. Building with the gentoo gcc4  
patch does not work, but i'm not exactly sure if i applied it  
correctly. And i found another patch that should fix this. I will do  
more tests tomorrow.

Just some questions:

What is the best way to try additional patches? Where are the  
commands like bmake fetch and bmake clean documented? Does something  
like "man bmake" exist (of course not man bmake, but man pkgsrc or so)?

Thanks,
