It's actually somewhat worse than this: When compiling a new port with dependencies, the internal foo_DEPENDS logic will detect the i386 .so but the port's own configuration tools or build process will normally die in interesting ways when they can't actually use that .so. -- Peter Jeremy Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed behaviour.
