That did it! Thanks! Now, a more or less serious question:
Has any work been done to re-design the build process so this
sort of thing is done automagically? I use FreeBSD on my x86
machines, and on them, tools such as compiler and linker are done
pretty early during a "make world". Not sure if this wouldn't be
a Good Thing for NetBSD as well. Granted, redesigning the system
build process would not be a small thing, but it might be worth
it.
In any case, thanks again. My build is now in progress once
more.
