I recall running into a similar bug while compiling a custom sparc
kernel. IIRC it is a slight syntax error, perhaps it is a change in how
the assembler works. Anyway, adding '.global g0' seemed to fix it.
Check the syntax of the block of assembler - it may be simple.

Is this not due to OpenBSD not support US-III CPUs? I think FreeBSD is the only *BSD with (rudimentary) support for the US-III. NetBSD and OpenBSD only support US-I and US-II. -mj -- Michael-John Turner | http://weblogs.turner.org.za/mj/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]| Open Source in WC ZA - http://www.clug.org.za/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
