Surprisingly, this did not occur to me until the Developer's Summit report on other architectures, so it's probably not obvious to most people. For the record, then: binutils 2.12.0 is *required* by IA64, and so it's required going forward. Personally, I've been quiet since my initial Alpha breakage complaints, except to try to help track things down once in a while, since I had since realized this was an issue. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
