Hmm sorry? I meant "there are a bunch of packages in pkgsrc that
actually put -D flags into CPPFLAGS". If the reason behind the
change in libxml2 is compatibility, then all other packages should
be "fixed" too.
I can think of a maybe-complex tweak to the buildlink wrappers
that could make -D usage transparent. But before even we may even
consider it, does pkgsrc work with such compilers ATM? Which are
these? And at last, don't they have a -D equivalent?
Thanks,
