3Special notes for cross-hosting a NetBSD build on certain platforms.  
4Only those platforms which have been tested to complete a "build.sh" run
5are listed.

7=====

9LINUX:
10
11* Tested on RedHat Linux 7.1 (i386).
12
13* The gcc (and libstdc++, if needed) package must be installed, along
14  with the typical system development packages (glibc-devel, etc.).
15
16* The ncurses-devel package must be installed (for nbinfo).
17
18* The zlib and zlib-devel packages must be installed.  This will be
19  fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.
20
21=====
22
23NETBSD (earlier releases):
24
25* Tested on NetBSD 1.5.2 (machine-independently).
26
27* Should need no special setup.
28
29=====

31SOLARIS:
32
33* Tested on Solaris/x86 8 (5.8) with gcc 2.95.2 and Solaris/sparc 8 (5.8)
34  with gcc 3.2 (not yet tested with SUNWspro).
35
36* $HOST_CC needs to be set properly (for gcc, it should be set to "gcc",
37  otherwise the improper /usr/ucb/cc may be invoked by accident).
38
39* The SUNWzlib package (or a built version of zlib visible to $HOST_CC,
40  such as SMCzlib from sunfreeware.com) must be installed.  This will be
41  fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.
42
43* Needs the following paths, in this order, in $PATH:
44
45      /usr/xpg4/bin
46      /usr/ccs/bin
47      <path to host C and C++ compilers>
48      /usr/bin
49
50  /usr/ucb may optionally be placed before /usr/bin, per your preference,
51  but /usr/ucb *MUST NOT* be before /usr/ccs/bin or before the path to
52  the host C and C++ compilers.
