Can someone please either diagnose these errors or else revert the deficient commits? These are old bugs that nobody noticed because they're in code that the tinderbox didn't use to build. They're in releng branches, so fixing them requires re@ and / or so@ approval.

I do agree it needs to be cleaned up one way or another. Given the reticence to commit changes to release branches, it is probably simpler to mask this via the tinderbox instead. -- John Baldwin ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Shouldn't whoever asked for that to be enabled take responsibility for cleaning them up then? I do agree it needs to be cleaned up one way or another. Given the reticence to commit changes to release branches, They're already broken. It's hard to see how fixing the problems could make things worse. :) Doug -- It's always a long day; 86400 doesn't fit into a short. Breadth of IT experience, and depth of knowledge in the DNS.
