We should solve the problem. I build on FreeBSD without GNU sed so I am interested why OpenBSD would break this way. > Just > a note in builder doc for both platforms?

MIPS is currently broken on FreeBSD because of a GNU sed issue. Chris _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@rtems.org http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
