UPDATING revision 1.248
1$NetBSD: UPDATING,v 1.248 2013/11/29 02:05:59 mrg Exp $
2
3This file (UPDATING) is intended to be a brief reference to recent
4changes that might cause problems in the build process, and a guide for
5what to do if something doesn't work.
6
7For a more detailed description of the recommended way to build NetBSD
8using build.sh, see the BUILDING file.
9
10Note that much of the advice in this UPDATING file was written before
11build.sh existed.  Nevertheless, the advice here may be useful for
12working around specific problems with build.sh.

16Recent changes:
17^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
18
1920131128:
20	The MPC and MPFR sources were updated, and builds may require their
21	tools and in-tree directories cleaned for successful updates.
22
2320130605:
24	The kernel option FAST_IPSEC no longer exists, it's been renamed
25	to IPSEC (and the older IPSEC version removed).
26
2720130605:
28	Previous freetype installations eroneously installed private
29	header files. If you are building against a non-empty $DESTDIR,
30	please remove ${DESTDIR}//usr/X11R7/include/freetype2/freetype/.
31
3220130531:
33	The xdm update may cause build failure due to xdm.man being
34	in the obj tree.  Make sure to ensure any like this:
35		nbmake: nbmake: don't know how to make xdm.man. Stop
36	is fixed by deleting the xdm.man in the obj tree.
37
3820130530:
39	Updates of many xsrc packages will leave old .pc files around.
40	Best to clean out the xsrc objdir entirely before rebuilds.
41
4220130301:
43	The removal of netiso requires manual removal of /usr/include/netiso
44	prior to the build and make cleandir in /usr/src/usr.bin/{ktruss,kdump}
45
4620120726:
47	The update of OpenSSL requires cleaning both the OpenSSL build
48	directory and DESTDIR.  *Even non-update builds require cleaning
49	DESTDIR.* Builds done without taking these steps may fail, or in
50	some cases may succeed and install broken OpenSSL libraries that
51	cause third-party software to link incorrectly and/or crash.
52
5320120507:
54	The database schema for makemandb was changed.  You will
55	need to update the database using 'makemandb -f' or wait
56	for the next weekly run to fix it.
57
5820120319:
59	sys/conf/Makefile.kern.inc has been modified to adjust the
60	size of db_symtab automatically.  You need to update dbsym in
61	your $TOOLDIR to build kernels with options SYMTAB_SPACE.  If
62	you don't want this behavior, add AUTO_SYMTAB_SPACE=no to your
63	mk.conf.
64
6520120216:
66	Default for MKCATPAGES changed to NO.  Update builds will fail
67	unless DESTDIR is cleaned manually.  If you built between 20120207
68	and 20120216, daily and weekly could have created an unreadable
69	/var/db/man.db index for apropos.  Running makemandb -f or
70	the next run of weekly will fix it.
71
7220111227:
73	If you built between 20111225 and 20111227 you need to remove
74	/usr/lib/libpam.so.4* and /usr/lib/security/*.so.4, since the
75	bump has been reverted.
76
7720111125:
78	The "rnd" pseudodevice has been added to sys/conf/std, which
79	means it should no longer be explicitly listed in kernel
80	configuration files.  The line "pseudo-device rnd" should be
81	removed from any custom kernel config files users may have.
82
8320111119:
84	A problem with the datastructures used by the rndctl(8)
85	utility (pointers in datastructures in an array, making 32->64
86	bit compatibility very painful) has been fixed in a
87	non-backwards-compatible way.  If you replace your kernel,
88	replace your rndctl executable too.
89
9020111001:
91	the prop_*_send_syscall() functions from proplib(3) have been
92	changed and their new version is not backward compatible with the old
93	one.  So ensure that all consumers of these functions (currently:
94	quota2 code and its tests) are updated together with the new lib.
95
9620110817:
97	sparc has been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any objdir or
98	DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
99
10020110806:
101	i386 and amd64 have been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any
102	objdir or DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
103
10420110805:
105	The update to GCC 4.5.3 requires a non-trivial portion of
106	the tree to be cleaned.  Best to delete both objdir and
107	DESTDIR before running this update.  So far, only the
108	sparc64, mips and powerpc platforms have changed.
109
11020110803:
111	The layout of external/public-domain/xz has changed.  To do an
112	update build you will have to remove the contents of the OBJDIR
113	for external/public-domain/xz/bin by hand as the xz entry there
114	is now a directory.
115
11620110410:
117	The configuration of src/tools/gcc has changed.  To do an
118	update build you have to clean both tools/binutils and
119	tools/gcc by hand.
120
12120110328:
122	Building the Xorg binary was moved into a subdirectory to fix
123	ordering issues with "make all".  It may be necessary to remove
124	the OBJDIR for external/mit/xorg/server/xorg-server/hw/xfree86
125	if your update build fails, as the "Xorg" entry there is now a
126	directory.
127
12820110121:
129	Assembler files no longer use -traditional-cpp.  This can break
130	the build of individual parts of the tree.  This is handled
131	correctly by build.sh.  Manual builds have to update /usr/share/mk
132	and re-run config(1) for any kernel configurations as needed.
133
13420101217:
135	The tcpdump(8) program was changed to drop privileges and chroot(2)
136	by default.  It may be necessary to manually update passwd(5) and
137	group(5) in order to make the program work with existing setups.
138
13920101125:
140	The latest changes to setenv(3) dissallow setting environment
141	variables with names that contain '='.  Revision 1.18 of env.c
142	assumed that this was allowed.  Installing a new libc with an
143	old copy of /usr/bin/env causes env x=1 printenv | grep x= to
144	break which affects the autoconf tests for dependency finding,
145	so building gcc will end up printing:
146	    checking dependency style of gcc... none
147	    configure: error: no usable dependency style found
148	Fix it by rebuilding and re-installing env.
149
15020101119:
151	Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ may cause various build
152	or run-time problems.  Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you
153	have any build problems with xsrc, or problems with mismatched
154	versions between xorg-server and drivers.
155
15620100604:
157	The update of ATF to 0.9 causes old tests written in shell to fail
158	unless they are rebuilt.  If you are building with MKUPDATE=yes,
159	you need to clean the src/external/bsd/atf/tests/ and the src/tests/
160	trees by hand.
161
16220100522:
163	Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ will cause various build
164	problems.  Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you have any
165	build problems with xsrc.
166
16720100522:
168	private section of <ctype.h> was splitted, and now mklocale(1)
169	include ctype_local.h, so you have to make cleandir in tools/mklocale.
170
17120100520:
172	The location of the xkb compiled descriptions has changed.  Please
173	remove usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled from your $DESTDIR.
174
17520100222:
176	The shared objects file extension has been changed from .so to
177	.pico, in order to avoid conflicts with shared libraries names
178	libXX.so.  All now stale regular .so files can be removed from
179	your object directories.
180
18120100204:
182	The termcap database has been removed from the sources,
183	but has not been marked obsolete so it is not removed
184	from the system when upgrading.
185	As such, you will need to remove them from your object
186	and destination directories.
187
18820091101:
189        After updating, it may be necessary to make the 'cleandir'
190        target in src/tools/yacc/ and in src/usr.bin/yacc/ before a
191        'build.sh -u tools' or 'build.sh -u distribution'.  Ditto
192        src/tools/lex/ and src/usr.bin/lex/.
193
19420091001:
195	On amd64 you must rebuild tools (to get the new binutils)
196	before building a kernel, or the build fails on cpufunc.S.
197
19820091001:
199	An error will create a ./usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled/xkb
200	symlink, failing the build.  Delete the link, and the subdir
201	it is in, and retry your build.
202
20320090718:
204	libc build changed so that strchr() provides the extra entry
205	point for index().  Update build of libc.a (and libc_pic.a)
206	may fail because the archive contains the unwanted index.o.
207	(Similarly for strrchr() and rindex().)
208
20920090709:
210	Native Xorg was upgraded again.  Builds will probably fail again
211	without a clean objdir, at least for src/external/mit/xorg.
212
21320090616:
214	Native Xorg was upgraded.  Builds will need a clean objdir for
215	src/external/mit/xorg.  Upgrading a system from sets will not
216	work properly yet as the /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/pc
217	subdirectory has been changed into a file, and this needs to
218	be manually "rm -r"'ed before installing xbase.tgz.
219
22020090501:
221	Several new functions were added to string.h/libc, and this
222	can cause autoconf problems during the tool build for people
223	who fail to clean out their tools objects properly.  If you
224	note messages about stpcpy, stpncpy or strnlen accompanying a
225	failure during the tool build, clean out all your tools
226	objects and start again.
227
22820090325:
229	The i386 port was switched to i486 default toolchain.  This requires
230	cleaning your src/tools directory and $TOOLDIR and rebuilding them.
231
23220090126:
233	The __posix_fadvise50 system call changed assembly stub type.  You
234	need to 'rm -f __posix_fadvise50.*' in the libc build directory
235	to avoid using the old assembly stub.
236
23720090202:
238	pkg_install now depends on the pkgdb cache for automatic conflict
239	detection.  It is recommented to rebuild the cache with
240	``pkg_admin rebuild''.
241
24220090110:
243	time_t and dev_t have been bumped to 64 bit quantities.  To upgrade:
244	1. Make sure your kernel has COMPAT_50 in it.  Build and install.
245	   This is needed even in the MODULAR kernel because there is
246	   conditionally compiled code in rtsock.c.
247	2. make sure build.sh completes and the binaries in a chroot work
248	   before installing.
249	3. If you don't use build.sh and you build directly to root, and
250	   your build breaks in the middle, don't despair.  Make sure headers
251	   are installed properly, and start building libraries first libc
252	   and libutil, install them and then continue building all the
253	   libraries in src/lib and src/gnu/lib and install them.  Once
254	   the new libraries are installed, you can restart the build.
255	4. If you compile packages and you notice link time warnings,
256	   rebuild the required packages to update their shared libraries.
257	   Any package you rebuild will require rebuilding all the packages
258	   that depend on it.
259	5. Next time you run pwd_mkdb with the new binary, the file
260	   will be upgraded and it will not be backwards compatible.
261	6. The utmpx/wtmpx files (/var/run/utmpx and /var/log/wtmpx, see
262	   lastlogx(5)) have been versioned, and there is a heuristic
263	   for utmp.  You are better off removing the old files after
264	   upgrading.  The automated clearing of /var/run during
265	   boot, and the automated rotating of files in /var/log by
266	   newsyslog(8), may mean that you do not have to remove the
267	   files manually.
268	7. The optional accounting file (/var/account/acct, see
269	   accton(8)) has not been versioned, and will need to be
270	   removed.  The automatic rotation of the accounting file by
271	   /etc/daily limits the bad consequences of failure to remove
272	   the file.
273	8. Application software that writes time_t to binary files on
274	   disk will break or need attention.  Most notably: if you are
275	   using PostgreSQL < 8.4, you need to dump your databases,
276	   rebuild PostgreSQL with the new time_t, then restore.
277
27820081219:
279	config(1) has been updated, and one of the files it creates -
280	swapnetbsd.o - has changed format.  You need to rebuild config
281	(done automatically by build.sh) and then you need to rerun
282	config on all kernel configuration files before rebuilding those
283	kernels.
284
28520081205:
286	If you build with MKX11=no, you should remove /etc/rc.d/xdm and
287	/etc/rc.d/xfs from DESTDIR because those files were moved to the xetc
288	set and will appear as extra files for MKX11=no update builds.
289
29020081122:
291	On i386, various kernel options(4) in GENERIC including
292	file systems have been disabled and moved into kernel modules.
293	Before trying a new GENERIC kernel, you have to prepare the
294	following files as well as a new GENERIC kernel:
295
296	- build and install kernel modules from src/sys/modules
297
298	- install the latest bootloader, which will load a module
299	  for the file system from which the kernel is loaded automatically
300
301	If you have to load your kernel from a file system which is not of
302	the same type as the root file system, you have to load the necessary
303	file system module manually on the boot prompt or in the boot.cfg file.
304
30520080827:
306	If you built and installed a libc from sources between
307	2008/08/20 and 2008/08/26 you got a broken strtouq(3)
308	which results in false errors reported by lint(1).
309	Since this breaks the libc build itself, manual help is
310	needed -- lint must be disabled temporarily, e.g.:
311	  $ (cd lib/libc && make MKLINT=no dependall install)
312
31320080813:
314	MKDEBUG build was broken because the .depend files did not know
315	about .go files.  You need to remove all .depend files and rebuild.
316
31720080802:
318	A regression in binary compatibility for pthread_mutex_t has
319	been fixed.  Unfortunately, the price is breaking compatibility
320	for -current.
321
322	Threaded programs (using libpthread) and C++ programs (using
323	libstdc++) compiled after 20070907 and before 20080802 need to
324	be recompiled.
325
326	One way to find affected pkgsrc packages:
327
328	  $ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libpthread /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO
329	  $ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libstdc++ /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO
330
33120080731:
332	WAPBL (metadata journaling support) has been added, but at this
333	time isn't backwards compatible with pre-WAPBL aware kernels
334	and userland (fsck_ffs in particular).  Please make sure you
335	don't use a journaled filesystem with an older kernel/userland,
336	especially an uncleanly mounted journaled filesystem.  WAPBL
337	also requires the super block to be in the UFS2 format.  You
338	can use fsck_ffs -c 4 to update the superblock format.
339
34020080721:
341	Assembler warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0 and $NOGCCERROR
342	isn't defined.
343
34420080531:
345	The ioctl number of DRVSUSPENDDEV command on /dev/drvctl changed
346	from 125 (conflicted with DRVCTLCOMMAND) to 129.  The drvctl(8)
347	utility needs to be rebuilt and reinstalled as older binaries
348	won't work correctly.  The following sequence of commands:
349
350	  $ (cd sys/sys/ && nbmake-$arch includes)
351	  $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch clean)
352	  $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch all)
353
354	leaves new drvctl utility in sbin/drvctl build directory.
355
35620080503:
357	The <bsd.lib.mk> variable MKPRIVATELIB was renamed to LIBISPRIVATE.
358
35920080521:
360	For a while, unprivileged UPDATE builds would fail to
361	succeed at the checkflist stage, complaining that
362	${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>/ did not exist.  A fix for this
363	problem was committed to share/mk/bsd.kmodule.mk, revision 1.9.
364	If you already hit this problem, update the .mk file,
365	remove ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>, and re-run the build.
366
36720080303:
368	Linker warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0.
369
37020080126:
371	The posix_fadvise system call has been changed from an assembly
372	stub, to a c file that calls an assembly stub.  You need to
373	'rm -f posix_fadvise.* .depend' in the libc build directory to
374	avoid using the old assembly stub.
375
37620071209:
377	The acpiec(4) driver has been split into two attachments.  If you
378	get ACPI errors before the attachment, please update your kernel
379	configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
380
38120071115:
382	The it(4) driver has been renamed to itesio(4) and the old port
383	argument specified in the kernel configuration file is not valid
384	anymore.  The itesio(4) driver now uses the Super I/O address port
385	rather than the EC address port.  Please update your kernel
386	configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
387
38820071028:
389	The pccons(4) driver has been removed from the NetBSD/shark port.
390	You need to update any custom kernel configuration file you have
391	to remove any references to pccons (which includes removing the
392	now useless XSERVER option) and replace them with the correct
393	entries for the wscons driver.  See the GENERIC configuration file
394	for more details.
395
39620070913:
397	A latent bug in dhclient/dhcpd that caused it to be unable to
398	enumerate interfaces was fixed.  The bug began to cause
399	problems after 20070911 when the kernel's SIOCGIFCONF
400	implementation was repaired.  From 20070529 to 20070911 racoon
401	could not enumerate interfaces.  (These are noted because
402	normal kernel/userspace version matching hygiene is not
403	sufficient to avoid this problem.)  Ensure that both kernel
404	and userland are from after 20070913.
405
40620070703:
407	nbinstall has been renamed ${MACHINE_GNU_ARCH}-install.  It
408	calls the target-specific strip program, and the logic to pass
409	down STRIP from make has been removed.  This requires a
410	re-installation of tools.
411
41220070422:
413	The way OS emulations lookup filenames inside the emulation root
414	has been changed.  Rather than modify the pathname (and copy back
415	to userspace) namei() and lookup() directly check the emulation
416	root.  One side effect is that absolute symlinks inside the emulated
417	root file system will be relative to that file system - unless they
418	start /../ this is useful when the emulated root is a real install
419	that has such links.
420	This might affect symlinks that have been added to reference outside
421	the emulated root.
422
42320070412:
424	The pckbc driver on sgimips IP32 has been removed.  Use macekbc
425	instead.  See the GENERIC32_IP3x kernel configuration for an
426	example.
427
42820070319:
429        src/lib/libc/Makefile revision 1.129 broke libc and ld.elf_so
430        on many platforms due to incorrect flags settings.  If you
431        updated and built after about 20070315, do "nbmake-$arch
432	cleandir" in src/lib/libc and src/libexec/ld.elf_so to force a
433	rebuild of object files that might have been built
434	incorrectly, and ensure that you have at least
435	src/lib/libc/Makefile 1.130.
436
43720070210:
438        src/sys/sys/{sa.h,savar.h} were removed.
439          find ${OBJDIR} \( -name .depend -o -name '*.d' \) -print \
440              | xargs egrep -l '/sa.h|/savar.h' | xargs rm
441        will allow dependencies on those files to get get rebuilt
442
44320070209:
444        The threading model was changed when the newlock2 branch
445        was merged to NetBSD-current.  If you boot with a new
446        kernel (version 4.99.10), then you also need a new pthread
447        library (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.7).  If you boot with
448        an old kernel, then you need the old pthread library
449        (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.6).  Provided you keep the kernel and
450        the pthread library in sync, old threaded applications should
451        continue to work with an old or new kernel.  Note that named(8)
452	is the only threaded application in the base system.
453
45420061214:
455	Following the move of string_to_flags() and flags_to_string()
456	from the bin/ls/ sources to libutil, users doing UPDATE builds
457	will need to do a "make cleandir" in
458		tools/mtree/, tools/makefs/, tools/binstall/, tools/pax/,
459		bin/pax/, bin/ls/, usr.sbin/mtree/, usr.sbin/makefs/,
460		usr.bin/xinstall/, libexec/ftpd/, rescue/, as well
461		as the installation images in distrib/
462	in order to excise stale references to the old stat_flags.h header
463	file in the ls sources -- stat_flags.h has been removed.
464
46520061108:
466	The configure script used in the src/tools/gcc compiler has been
467	changed to indicate that our libc has ssp support built-in and
468	does not depend on -lssp and -lssp-nonshared.  You'll need to
469	make clean in src/tools/gcc first to rebuild the compiler.
470
47120061009:
472	The sysctl variables net.inet{,6}.tcp{,6}.newreno are no longer
473	available.  Use net.inet{,6}.tcp{,6}.congctl.selected instead.
474
47520060814:
476	The vt, vidcconsole, kbd, and rpckbd drivers on acorn32 have been
477	withdrawn.  Use vidcvideo and pckbd instead.  See the GENERIC
478	kernel configuration for an example.  X servers from the last
479	few years should cope.
480
48120060703:
482	MPACPI is no more.  We always configure PCI interrupts using ACPI
483	if we have an ACPI kernel.  The option MPACPI_SCANPCI has been renamed
484	to ACPI_SCANPCI.  Thanks to work from fvdl.
485
48620060627:
487	socket(2) has changed, and its system call has been versioned.
488	For userlands with the old version of socket(2), make sure that
489	your kernel has 'options COMPAT_30' set, or else 'bad system call'
490	errors will result.
491
492Hints for a more successful build:
493^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
494    Use build.sh, but do not use its "expert mode":
495	This will automatically build the tools in the
496	   correct order, and it will keep the tools and the
497	   new build products from interfering with the running
498	   system.  This will allow you to ignore most of the
499	   other advice in this file.
500    Build a new kernel first:
501	This makes sure that any new system calls or features
502	   expected by the new userland will be present.  This
503	   helps to avoid critical errors when upgrading.
504    Use object directories:
505	This helps to keep stale object
506	   files from polluting the build if a Makefile "forgets"
507	   about one.  It also makes it easier to clean up after
508	   a build.  It's also necessary if you want to use the
509	   same source tree for multiple machines.
510	   To use object directories with build.sh:
511	    a) invoke build.sh with the "-M" or "-O" options.
512	   To use object directories without using build.sh:
513	    a) cd /usr/src ; make cleandir
514	    b) Add "OBJMACHINE=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
515	    c) Add "MKOBJDIRS=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
516	    d) cd /usr/src ; make build
517	   Note that running "make obj" in a directory will create
518	   in obj.$MACHINE directory.
519    Build to a DESTDIR:
520	This helps to keep old installed files (especially libraries)
521	   from interfering with the new build.
522	   To build to a DESTDIR with build.sh, use the "-D" option.
523	   To build to a DESTDIR without using build.sh, set the DESTDIR
524	   environment variable before running make build.  It should be
525	   set to the pathname of an initially empty directory.
526	   Problems: if you do not use build.sh, you might need to
527		update critical utilities without using DESTDIR since
528		nothing is executed from what is installed in DESTDIR.
529		(See critical utils, below.)
530    Build often:
531	This keeps critical utilities current enough to not choke
532	on any other part of the source tree that depends on up to
533	date functionality.  If you use build.sh, you should not have
534	this problem.
535
536What to do if things don't work:
537^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
538When things don't work there are usually a few things that commonly
539should be done.
540    1)	make includes
541	This should be done automatically by make build.
542    2)  cd share/mk && make install
543	Again, automatically done by make build.
544
545Failsafe rebuild of a small part of the tree:
546^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
547To make sure you rebuild something correctly you want to do
548something like the following:
549    1)  Make sure the includes and .mk files are up to date.
550    2)  Make sure any program used to build the particular
551	utility is up to date.  (yacc, lex, etc...)
552    3)  cd ...path/to/util...
553	make cleandir
554	rm ...all obj directories...
555	make cleandir			# yes, again
556	make obj
557	make depend && make
558
559Failsafe rebuild of the entire tree:
560^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
561If you really want to make sure the source tree is clean and
562ready for a build try the following.  Note that sourcing /etc/mk.conf
563(a make(1) Makefile) in this manner is not right, and will not work
564for anyone who uses any make(1) features in /etc/mk.conf.

599Other problems and possible solutions:
600^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
601Symptom:Complaints involving a Makefile.
602Fix:	Rebuild usr.bin/make:
603	cd usr.bin/make && make && make install
604	Or, a failsafe method if that doesn't work:
605	cd usr.bin/make && cc *.c */*.c -I . -o make && mv make /usr/bin
606
607Fix:	Make sure .mk files are up to date.
608	cd share/mk && make install
609
610Symptom:Kernel `config' fails to configure any kernel, including GENERIC.
611Fix:	Rebuild usr.bin/config
612
613Symptom:
614Fix:	Rebuild usr.bin/yacc
615
616Symptom:
617Fix:	Rebuild usr.bin/lex
618
619Symptom:
620Fix:	rm /usr/lib/libbfd.a
621
622Symptom:Obsolete intermediate files are used during compilation
623Fix:	Try the following sequence of commands in the directory in question.
624	make cleandir; rm `make print-objdir`; make cleandir; make obj
625	(If you built the tree without "make obj" in the past, obsolete files
626	may remain.  The command tries to clean everything up)
627
628Symptom:.../sysinst/run.c:xx: warning: initialization from incompatible
629	pointer type
630Fix:	Rebuild and install usr.bin/menuc
631
632Symptom:mklocale not found during build in share/locale/ctype
633Fix:	Build and install usr.bin/mklocale
634
635Symptom:undefined reference to `__assert13' or `__unsetenv13'
636Fix:    Rebuild and install lib/libc
637
638Symptom:usr.bin/config fails to build.
639Fix:	Try building with -DMAKE_BOOTSTRAP added to CFLAGS in Makefile.
640
641Symptom:undefined reference to `getprogname' or `setprogname'
642Fix:    Rebuild and install lib/libc
643
644Symptom:lint does not understand the '-X' option
645Fix:    May need to build & install libs with NOLINT=1 before rebuilding lint
646
647Symptom:Update build fails in src/tools/gcc complaining that a variable
648	(e.g. CPPFLAGS) has changed since the previous run.
649Fix:    Run "nbmake-${ARCH} clean" in src/tools/gcc or do a clean build.
