I tried a build of ldoms-mgr-gate using the instructions at
http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+ldoms-mgr/BuildingGate
I was almost successful after several workarounds, but I got hung up
on an error from mdgen.new.
1) It would be helpful if the mercurial repo was accessible via http.
Most corporate firewalls don't allow ssh connections. The one I need
to contend with doesn't allow ssh proxying either.
2) The following environment variable is needed to find the onbld tools.
$ export SNV_TOOLS=/opt
3) Solaris 10 has no /usr/bin/make. Valid options are likely dmake
that came with the Studio compilers or /usr/ccs/bin/make.
4) Linking fails unless I do this bad thing. Surely there is a
different fix to force it to use libpiclsnp.so.1 directly...
# cd /usr/platform/sun4v/lib
# ln -s libpiclsnmp.so.1 libpiclsnmp.so
5) Not sure what to do with this...
/usr/ccs/lib/cpp vcpu-state.md > vcpu-state.bin.tmp
/usr/local/bin/mdgen.new -o vcpu-state.bin vcpu-state.bin.tmp
FATAL: Illegal assignment expression at line 44 of vcpu-state.md
*** Error code 1
dmake: Fatal error: Command failed for target `vcpu-state.bin'
$ less -N state-md/vcpu-state.md
...
41 rtba = 0;
42 ntsb_ctx0 = 0;
43 ntsb_ctxn = 0;
44 tsbds_ctx0 = { [128] };
45 tsbds_ctxn = { [128] };
46 mmu_enabled = 0;
The same error happens on the other md files on the first line of the format:
something = { [num] };
The version of mdgen from the opensparc-t2 CVS repository gives the same error.

Was the right version of mdgen uploaded to the wiki? It doesn't look
like the input files have changed since the ldoms manager code was
first made available.
# digest -a md5 /usr/local/bin/mdgen.new
