I think these are harmless. Newer versions of the linker have the warning 
disabled IIRC.

This is not good something has got seriously scrambled here. 

Is this an SA system. Paranoia suggests that you might be running into the SA 
bug but I have a 'buggy' SA and I didn't have problems with the 1.3 ALPHA 
snapshot in fact using the 1.3 ALPHA compiler sets with my system was the only 
way to get current to build at the time.

Can you remember how they failed. I had Cryptozilla and xemacs 20 both
working in 1.4. In fact they still work fine on my 1.4I NetBSD-current 
system compiled a few days ago. The only problem I would anticipate is shared 
library issues which should be avoided by extracting the 1.4 sets over the top 
of 1.3 ALPHA or a copy of it.

Given that NetBSD 1.4 uses the same version of egcs as Red Hat Linux 5.2 I
would expect an easier time compiling with a more up to date system. If you 
have the time to try the upgrade again and have problems with XEmacs or 
Mozilla let me know and I'll do my best to help.

I've just set qt 2 building here I'll let you know how it goes.
