This is the README file for the new make "include" files for the BSD
source tree.  The files are installed in /usr/share/mk, and are, by
convention, named with the suffix ".mk".

Note, this file is not intended to replace reading through the .mk
files for anything tricky.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

RANDOM THINGS WORTH KNOWING:

The files are simply C-style #include files, and pretty much behave like
you'd expect.  The syntax is slightly different in that a single '.' is
used instead of the hash mark, i.e. ".include <bsd.prog.mk>".

One difference that will save you lots of debugging time is that inclusion
of the file is normally done at the *end* of the Makefile.  The reason for
this is because .mk files often modify variables and behavior based on the
values of variables set in the Makefile.  To make this work, remember that
the FIRST target found is the target that is used, i.e. if the Makefile has:

	a:
		echo a
	a:
		echo a number two

the command "make a" will echo "a".  To make things confusing, the SECOND
variable assignment is the overriding one, i.e. if the Makefile has:

	a=	foo
	a=	bar

	b:
		echo ${a}

the command "make b" will echo "bar".  This is for compatibility with the
way the V7 make behaved.

It's fairly difficult to make the BSD .mk files work when you're building
multiple programs in a single directory.  It's a lot easier to split up the
programs than to deal with the problem.  Most of the agony comes from making
the "obj" directory stuff work right, not because we switched to a new version
of make.  So, don't get mad at us, figure out a better way to handle multiple
architectures so we can quit using the symbolic link stuff.  (Imake doesn't
count.)

The file .depend in the source directory is expected to contain dependencies
for the source files.  This file is read automatically by make after reading
the Makefile.

The variable DESTDIR works as before.  It's not set anywhere but will change
the tree where the file gets installed.

The profiled libraries are no longer built in a different directory than
the regular libraries.  A new suffix, ".po", is used to denote a profiled
object, and ".so" denotes a shared (position-independent) object.

There are various make variables used during the build.  Basic rule for
the variable naming scheme is as follows:

MKxxx		Can be set to "no" to disable functionality, or
		"yes" to enable it.
		Usually defaults to "yes", although some variables
		default to "no".
		Due to make(1) implementation issues, if a temporary
		command-line override of a mk.conf or <bsd.own.mk> setting
		is required whilst still honouring a particular
		Makefile's setting of MKxxx, use
			env MKxxx=value make
		instead of
			make MKxxx=value

NOxxx		If defined, disables a feature.
		Not intended for users.
		This is to allow Makefiles to disable functionality
		that they don't support (such as missing man pages).
		NOxxx variables must be defined before <bsd.own.mk>
		is included.

The following variables that control how things are made/installed that
are not set by default. These should not be set by Makefiles; they're for
the user to define in MAKECONF (see <bsd.own.mk>, below) or on the make(1)
command line:

BUILD 		If defined, 'make install' checks that the targets in the
		source directories are up-to-date and remakes them if they
                are out of date, instead of blindly trying to install
                out of date or non-existent targets.

MAKEVERBOSE	Control how "verbose" the standard make(1) rules are.

COPTS.lib<lib>
LDADD.lib<lib>
CPPFLAGS.lib<lib>
CXXFLAGS.lib<lib>
COPTS.<prog>
LDADD.<prog>
CPPFLAGS.<prog>
CXXFLAGS.<prog>	These provide a way to specify additions to the associated
		variables in a way that applies only to a particular library
		or program.  <lib> corresponds to the LIB variable set in
		the library's makefile.  <prog> corresponds to either PROG
		or PROG_CXX (if set).  For example, if COPTS.libcrypto is
		set to "-g", "-g" will be added to COPTS only when compiling
		the crypto library.

=-=-=-=-=   sys.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <sys.mk> has the default rules for all makes, in the BSD
environment or otherwise.  You probably don't want to touch this file.

=-=-=-=-=   bsd.own.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.own.mk> contains source tree configuration parameters,
such as the owners, groups, etc. for both manual pages and binaries, and
a few global "feature configuration" parameters.

It has no targets.

To get system-specific configuration parameters, <bsd.own.mk> will try to
include the file specified by the "MAKECONF" variable.  If MAKECONF is not
set, or no such file exists, the system make configuration file, /etc/mk.conf
is included.  These files may define any of the variables described below.

<bsd.own.mk> sets the following variables, if they are not already defined
(defaults are in brackets):

NETBSDSRCDIR	Top of the NetBSD source tree.
		If _SRC_TOP_ != "", that will be used as the default,
		otherwise BSDSRCDIR will be used as the default.
		Various makefiles within the NetBSD source tree will
		use this to reference the top level of the source tree.

_SRC_TOP_	Top of the system source tree, as determined by <bsd.own.mk>
		based on the presence of tools/ and build.sh.  This variable
		is "internal" to <bsd.own.mk>, although its value is only
		determined once and then propagated to all sub-makes.

BSDSRCDIR	The real path to the system sources, so that 'make obj'
		will work correctly.  [/usr/src]

BSDOBJDIR	The real path to the system 'obj' tree, so that 'make obj'
		will work correctly.  [/usr/obj]

BINGRP		Binary group.  [wheel]

BINOWN		Binary owner.  [root]

BINMODE		Binary mode.  [555]

NONBINMODE	Mode for non-executable files.  [444]

MANDIR		Base path for manual installation.  [/usr/share/man/cat]

MANGRP		Manual group.  [wheel]

MANOWN		Manual owner.  [root]

MANMODE		Manual mode.  [${NONBINMODE}]

MANINSTALL	Manual installation type: maninstall, catinstall, or both

LDSTATIC	Control program linking; if set blank, link everything
		dynamically.  If set to "-static", link everything statically.
		If not set, programs link according to their makefile.

LIBDIR		Base path for library installation.  [/usr/lib]

LINTLIBDIR	Base path for lint(1) library installation.  [/usr/libdata/lint]

LIBGRP		Library group.  [${BINGRP}]

LIBOWN		Library owner.  [${BINOWN}]

LIBMODE		Library mode.  [${NONBINMODE}]

DOCDIR		Base path for system documentation (e.g. PSD, USD, etc.)
	        installation.  [/usr/share/doc]

HTMLDOCDIR	Base path for html system documentation installation.
		[/usr/share/doc/html]

DOCGRP		Documentation group.  [wheel]

DOCOWN		Documentation owner.  [root]

DOCMODE		Documentation mode.  [${NONBINMODE}]

NLSDIR		Base path for Native Language Support files installation.
		[/usr/share/nls]

NLSGRP		Native Language Support files group.  [wheel]

NLSOWN		Native Language Support files owner.  [root]

NLSMODE		Native Language Support files mode.  [${NONBINMODE}]

STRIPFLAG	The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
		to be stripped.  This is to be used when building your
		own install script so that the entire system can be made
		stripped/not-stripped using a single knob.  [-s]

COPY		The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
		to be copied rather than moved.  This is to be used when
		building our own install script so that the entire system
		can either be installed with copies, or with moves using
		a single knob.  [-c]

Additionally, the following variables may be set by <bsd.own.mk> or in a
make configuration file to modify the behaviour of the system build
process (default values are in brackets along with comments, if set by
<bsd.own.mk>):

OBJECT_FMT	Object file format.  [set to "ELF" on architectures that
		use ELF -- currently if ${MACHINE_ARCH} is "alpha",
		"mipsel", "mipseb", "powerpc", "sparc", "sparc64",
		"i386" and some m68k machines, or set to "a.out" on
		other architectures].

TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
		If "yes", this indicates that the platform being built
		does not have a working in-tree toolchain.  If the
		MACHINE_ARCH in question falls into this category, the
		variable is conditionally assigned the value "yes".
		Otherwise, the variable is unconditionally assigned the
		value "no".

		If TOOLCHAIN_MISSING is "yes", the variables MKBFD, MKGCC,
		and MKGDB are unconditionally assigned the value "no".

EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN
		This variable is not directly set by <bsd.own.mk>, but
		including <bsd.own.mk> is the canonical way to gain
		access to this variable.  The variable should be defined
		either in the user's environment or in the user's mk.conf
		file.  If defined, this variable indicates the root of
		an external toolchain which will be used to build the
		tree.  For example, if a platform is a TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
		platform, EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN can be used to re-enable the
		cross-compile framework.

		If EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN is defined, the variable MKGCC is
		unconditionally assigned the value "no", since the external
		version of the compiler may not be able to build the library
		components of the in-tree compiler.

		NOTE: This variable is not yet used in as many places as
		it should be.  Expect the exact semantics of this variable
		to change in the short term as parts of the cross-compile
		framework continue to be cleaned up.

<bsd.own.mk> is generally useful when building your own Makefiles so that
they use the same default owners etc. as the rest of the tree.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.dep.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.dep.mk> contains the default targets for building
.depend files.  It creates .d files from entries in SRCS and DPSRCS
that are C, C++, or Objective C source files, and builds .depend from the
.d files.  All other files in SRCS and all of DPSRCS will be used as
dependencies for the .d files.  In order for this to function correctly,
it should be .included after all other .mk files and directives that may
modify SRCS or DPSRCS.  It uses the following variables:

SRCS		List of source files to build the program.

DPSRCS		List of source files which are needed for generating
		dependencies, but are not needed in ${SRCS}.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.files.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.files.mk> handles the FILES variables and is included
from <bsd.lib.mk> and <bsd.prog.mk>, and uses the following variables:

FILES		The list of files to install.

FILESOWN	File owner.  [${BINOWN}]

FILESGRP	File group.  [${BINGRP}]

FILESMODE	File mode.  [${BINMODE}]

FILESDIR	The location to install the files.

FILESNAME	Optional name to install each file as.

FILESDIR.<fn>	The location to install the specific file <fn>.

FILESNAME.<fn>	Optional name to install <fn> as.

BUILDSYMLINKS	List of two word items:
			lnsrc lntgt
		For each lnsrc item, create a symlink named lntgt.
		The lntgt symlinks are removed by the cleandir target.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.gcc.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.gcc.mk> computes various parameters related to GCC
support libraries.  It defines no targets.  <bsd.own.mk> MUST be included
before <bsd.gcc.mk>.

The primary users of <bsd.gcc.mk> are <bsd.prog.mk> and <bsd.lib.mk>, each
of which need to know where to find certain GCC support libraries.

The behavior of <bsd.gcc.mk> is influenced by the EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN variable,
which is generally set by the user.  If EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN it set, then
the compiler is asked where to find the support libraries, otherwise the
support libraries are found in ${DESTDIR}/usr/lib.

<bsd.gcc.mk> sets the following variables:

_GCC_CRTBEGIN	The full path name to crtbegin.o.

_GCC_CRTBEGINS	The full path name to crtbeginS.o.

_GCC_CRTEND	The full path name to crtend.o.

_GCC_CRTENDS	The full path name to crtendS.o.

_GCC_LIBGCCDIR	The directory where libgcc.a is located.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.inc.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.inc.mk> defines the includes target and uses the
variables:

INCS		The list of include files.

INCSDIR		The location to install the include files.

INCSNAME	Target name of the include file, if only one; same as
		FILESNAME, but for include files.

INCSYMLINKS	Similar to SYMLINKS in <bsd.links.mk>, except that these
		are installed in the 'includes' target and not the
		(much later) 'install' target.

INCSNAME_<file>	The name file <file> should be installed as, if not <file>,
		same as FILESNAME_<file>, but for include files.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.info.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.info.mk> is used to generate and install GNU Info
documentation from respective Texinfo source files.  It defines three
implicit targets (.txi.info, .texi.info, and .texinfo.info), and uses the
following variables:

TEXINFO		List of Texinfo source files.  Info documentation will
		consist of single files with the extension replaced by
		.info.

INFOFLAGS	Flags to pass to makeinfo.  []


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.kernobj.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.kernobj.mk> defines variables related to the
location of kernel sources and object directories.

KERNSRCDIR	Is the location of the top of the kernel src.
		[${_SRC_TOP_}/sys]

KERNARCHDIR	Is the location of the machine dependent kernel sources.
		[arch/${MACHINE}]

KERNCONFDIR	Is where the configuration files for kernels are found.
		[${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/conf]

KERNOBJDIR	Is the kernel build directory.  The kernel GENERIC for
		instance will be compiled in ${KERNOBJDIR}/GENERIC.
		The default value is
		${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile
		if it exists or the target 'obj' is being made.
		Otherwise the default is
		${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile.

It is important that Makefiles (such as those under src/distrib) that
wish to find compiled kernels use <bsd.kernobj.mk> and ${KERNOBJDIR}
rather than make assumptions about the location of the compiled kernel.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.kinc.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.kinc.mk> defines the many targets (includes,
subdirectories, etc.), and is used by kernel makefiles to handle
include file installation.  It is intended to be included alone, by
kernel Makefiles.  It uses similar variables to <bsd.inc.mk>.
Please see <bsd.kinc.mk> for more details, and keep the documentation
in that file up to date.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.lib.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.lib.mk> has support for building libraries.  It has
the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all, clean, cleandir, depend,
includes, install, lint, and tags.  Additionally, it has a checkver target
which checks for installed shared object libraries whose version is greater
that the version of the source. It has a limited number of suffixes,
consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree.  <bsd.lib.mk> includes
<bsd.shlib.mk> to get shared library parameters.

It sets/uses the following variables:

LIB		The name of the library to build.

LIBDIR		Target directory for libraries.

SHLIBINSTALLDIR	Target directory for shared libraries if ${USE_SHLIBDIR}
		is "yes".

USE_SHLIBDIR	If "yes", use ${SHLIBINSTALLDIR} instead of ${LIBDIR}
		as the path to install shared libraries to.
		USE_SHLIBDIR must be defined before <bsd.own.mk> is included.
		Default: no

LINTLIBDIR	Target directory for lint libraries.

LIBGRP		Library group.

LIBOWN		Library owner.

LIBMODE		Library mode.

LDADD		Additional loader objects.

MAN		The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix).

NOCHECKVER_<library>
NOCHECKVER	If set, disables checking for installed shared object
		libraries with versions greater than the source.  A
		particular library name, without the "lib" prefix, may
		be appended to the variable name to disable the check for
		only that library.

SRCS		List of source files to build the library.  Suffix types
		.s, .c, and .f are supported.  Note, .s files are preferred
		to .c files of the same name.  (This is not the default for
		versions of make.)

The include file <bsd.lib.mk> includes the file named "../Makefile.inc"
if it exists, as well as the include file <bsd.man.mk>.

It has rules for building profiled objects; profiled libraries are
built by default.

Libraries are ranlib'd when made.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.links.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.links.mk> handles the LINKS and SYMLINKS variables
and is included from from <bsd.lib.mk> and <bsd.prog.mk>.

LINKS		The list of hard links, consisting of pairs of paths:
			source-file target-file
		${DESTDIR} is prepended to both paths before linking.
		For example, to link /bin/test and /bin/[, use:
			LINKS=/bin/test /bin/[

SYMLINKS	The list of symbolic links, consisting of pairs of paths:
			source-file target-file
		${DESTDIR} is only prepended to target-file before linking.
		For example, to symlink /usr/bin/tar to /bin/tar resulting
		in ${DESTDIR}/usr/bin/tar -> /bin/tar:
			SYMLINKS=/bin/tar /usr/bin/tar


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.man.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.man.mk> handles installing manual pages and their
links.

It has a two targets:

	maninstall:
		Install the manual page sources and their links.
	catinstall:
		Install the preformatted manual pages and their links.

It sets/uses the following variables:

MANDIR		Base path for manual installation.

MANGRP		Manual group.

MANOWN		Manual owner.

MANMODE		Manual mode.

MANSUBDIR	Subdirectory under the manual page section, i.e. "/vax"
		or "/tahoe" for machine specific manual pages.

MAN		The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix).

MLINKS		List of manual page links (using a .1 - .9 suffix).  The
		linked-to file must come first, the linked file second,
		and there may be multiple pairs.  The files are soft-linked.

The include file <bsd.man.mk> includes a file named "../Makefile.inc" if
it exists.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.obj.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.obj.mk> defines targets related to the creation
and use of separated object and source directories.

If an environment variable named MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is set, make(1) uses
${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${.CURDIR} as the name of the object directory if
it exists.  Otherwise make(1) looks for the existence of a
subdirectory (or a symlink to a directory) of the source directory
into which built targets should be placed.  If an environment variable
named MAKEOBJDIR is set, make(1) uses its value as the name of the
object directory; failing that, make first looks for a subdirectory
named "obj.${MACHINE}", and if that doesn't exist, it looks for "obj".

Object directories are not created automatically by make(1) if they
don't exist; you need to run a separate "make obj".  (This will happen
during a top-level build if "MKOBJDIRS" is set to a value other than
"no").  When the source directory is a subdirectory of ${BSDSRCDIR} --
and this is determined by a simple string prefix comparison -- object
directories are created in a separate object directory tree, and a
symlink to the object directory in that tree is created in the source
directory; otherwise, "make obj" assumes that you're not in the main
source tree and that it's not safe to use a separate object tree.

Several variables used by <bsd.obj.mk> control exactly what
directories and links get created during a "make obj":

MAKEOBJDIR	If set, this is the component name of the object
		directory.

OBJMACHINE	If this is set but MAKEOBJDIR is not set, creates
		object directories or links named "obj.${MACHINE}";
		otherwise, just creates ones named "obj".

USR_OBJMACHINE  If set, and the current directory is a subdirectory of
		${BSDSRCDIR}, create object directory in the
		corresponding subdirectory of ${BSDOBJDIR}.${MACHINE};
		otherwise, create it in the corresponding subdirectory
		of ${BSDOBJDIR}

BUILDID		If set, the contents of this variable are appended
		to the object directory name.  If OBJMACHINE is also
		set, ".${BUILDID}" is added after ".${MACHINE}".


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.prog.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.prog.mk> handles building programs from one or
more source files, along with their manual pages.  It has a limited number
of suffixes, consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree. 
<bsd.prog.mk> includes <bsd.shlib.mk> to get shared library parameters.

It has eight targets:

	all:
		build the program and its manual page.  This also
		creates a GDB initialization file (.gdbinit) in
		the objdir.  The .gdbinit file sets the shared library
		prefix to ${DESTDIR} to facilitate cross-debugging.
	clean:
		remove the program, any object files and the files a.out,
		Errs, errs, mklog, and ${PROG}.core.
	cleandir:
		remove all of the files removed by the target clean, as
		well as .depend, tags, and any manual pages.
		`distclean' is a synonym for `cleandir'.
	depend:
		make the dependencies for the source files, and store
		them in the file .depend.
	includes:
		install any header files.
	install:
		install the program and its manual pages; if the Makefile
		does not itself define the target install, the targets
		beforeinstall and afterinstall may also be used to cause
		actions immediately before and after the install target
		is executed.
	lint:
		run lint on the source files
	tags:
		create a tags file for the source files.

It sets/uses the following variables:

BINGRP		Binary group.

		is built.

PROG_CXX	If defined, the name of the program to build.  Also
		causes <bsd.prog.mk> to link the program with the C++

		the value of PROG if PROG is also set.

PROGNAME	The name that the above program will be installed as, if
		different from ${PROG}.

SHAREDSTRINGS	If defined, a new .c.o rule is used that results in shared
		strings, using xstr(1). Note that this will not work with
		parallel makes.

STRIPFLAG	The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
		to be stripped.

SUBDIR		A list of subdirectories that should be built as well.
		Each of the targets will execute the same target in the
		subdirectories.

SCRIPTS		A list of interpreter scripts [file.{sh,csh,pl,awk,...}].
		These are installed exactly like programs.

SCRIPTSNAME	The name that the above program will be installed as, if
		different from ${SCRIPTS}. These can be further specialized
		by setting SCRIPTSNAME_<script>.

FILES		See description of <bsd.files.mk>.

SHLINKDIR	Target directory for shared linker.  See description of
		<bsd.own.mk> for additional information about this variable.

USE_LIBSTDCXX	If "no", the support libraries needed for C++ programs
		are set to `-lsupc++ -lm', rather than `-lstdc++ -lm'.
		Default: yes

The include file <bsd.prog.mk> includes the file named "../Makefile.inc"
if it exists, as well as the include file <bsd.man.mk>.

Some simple examples:

To build foo from foo.c with a manual page foo.1, use:

	PROG=	foo

	.include <bsd.prog.mk>

To build foo from foo.c with a manual page foo.2, add the line:

	MAN=	foo.2

If foo does not have a manual page at all, add the line:

	MKMAN=	no

If foo has multiple source files, add the line:

	SRCS=	a.c b.c c.c d.c


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.rpc.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.rpc.mk> contains a makefile fragment used to
construct source files built by rpcgen.

The following macros may be defined in makefiles which include
<bsd.rpc.mk> in order to control which files get built and how they
are to be built:

RPC_INCS:	construct .h file from .x file
RPC_XDRFILES:	construct _xdr.c from .x file
		(for marshalling/unmarshalling data types)
RPC_SVCFILES:	construct _svc.c from .x file
		(server-side stubs)
RPC_SVCFLAGS:	Additional flags passed to builds of RPC_SVCFILES.

RPC_XDIR:	Directory containing .x/.h files


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.shlib.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.shlib.mk> computes parameters for shared library
installation and use.  It defines no targets.  <bsd.own.mk> MUST be
included before <bsd.shlib.mk>.

<bsd.own.mk> sets the following variables, if they are not already defined
(defaults are in brackets):

SHLIBINSTALLDIR	If ${USE_SHLIBDIR} is "yes", use ${SHLIBINSTALLDIR} instead of
		${LIBDIR} as the base path for shared library installation.
		[/lib]

SHLIBDIR	The path to USE_SHLIBDIR shared libraries to use when building
		a program.  [/lib for programs in /bin and /sbin, /usr/lib
		for all others.]

_LIBSODIR	Set to ${SHLIBINSTALLDIR} if ${USE_SHLIBDIR} is "yes",
		otherwise set to ${LIBDIR}

SHLINKINSTALLDIR Base path for shared linker.  [/libexec]

SHLINKDIR	Path to use for shared linker when building a program.
		[/libexec for programs in /bin and /sbin, /usr/libexec for
		all others.]


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.subdir.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.subdir.mk> contains the default targets for building
subdirectories.  It has the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all,
clean, cleandir, depend, includes, install, lint, and tags.  For all of
the directories listed in the variable SUBDIR, the specified directory
will be visited and the target made.  There is also a default target which
allows the command "make subdir" where subdir is any directory listed in
the variable SUBDIR.

As a special case, the use of a token .WAIT as an entry in SUBDIR acts
as a synchronization barrier when multiple make jobs are run; subdirs
before the .WAIT must complete before any subdirs after .WAIT are
started.  See make(1) for some caveats on use of .WAIT and other
special sources.


=-=-=-=-=   bsd.sys.mk   =-=-=-=-=

The include file <bsd.sys.mk> is used by <bsd.prog.mk> and
<bsd.lib.mk>.  It contains overrides that are used when building
the NetBSD source tree.

		mk.conf if you're doing format-string auditing.
		FORMAT_AUDIT may go away in time.
