I just nuked my /usr/pkg on Solaris8 (the lang/gcc3 build failed
using Solaris gcc3 that we discussed yesterday) and tried the the
bootstrap using /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc (/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc -o bmake):

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating nbcompat/config.h
gcc -o bits bits.c
./bits nbcompat/nbtypes.h
nawk '                                                   BEGIN { process = 1 }    /NBCOMPAT template section follows\./ { process = 0 }    /^\#[  ]*define[       ]+PACKAGE_.*/ { next }             /^\#[  ]*define[       ]+/ {                     if (process == 1) {                              guard = $0;                      sub("^#[        ]*define[       ]+", "", guard);  sub("[        ]+.*", "", guard); print "#ifndef " guard;                         print $0;                        print "#endif";                          next;                                   } }                                                       { print }                ' nbcompat/config.h > nbcompat/nbconfig.h

Stop.
bmake: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap/work/libnbcompat

Also, might it be possible for bootstrap to use '/usr/pkg' as a
softlink? Right now bootstrap won't run when /usr/pkg is a softlink.

Thanks!
