Why doesn't etc/Makefile use bsd.files.mk, other than the fact that it's older than bsd.files.mk? :-) My experience with msd.files.mk has been that it doesn't have trouble with files coming from the obj dir or from the source dir, so it would probably be a good fix. I will however let those more familiar with etc/Makefile actually do the converion. :-) Take care, Bill
