Jan,

I did not manually copy an example 'mk.conf' file into '/etc'.  I
believe the 'bootstrap' command did that for me.

  # find / /usr/pkg /usr/pkgsrc -xdev -name "*mk.conf*"
  /etc/mk.conf
  # 

I'm confused about '/etc/compiler.defaults'.  Is that file used if I
am using gcc-3.3 in '/usr/freeware/bin'?  I assumed, perhaps
erroneously, that '/etc/compiler.defaults' was used to configure 'cc'.

I added the two lines you suggested into '/etc/mk.conf', ran 'bmake
clean' and have just started 'bmake'.  I will write later to report my
results.

I really appreciate the input from everyone.  This is a great forum.

Ryan
