out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.
running threaded binaries if SIGCHLD was set to SIG_IGN. What happens is
that pthreads uses either sigaction() or signal() to set up signals when
switching thread state. It used HAVE_SYSCALL_SIGACTION to decide which to
use. But, while we have a FUNCTION called sigaction(), the syscall is
__sigaction14, which caused HAVE_SYSCALL_SIGACTION to not be defined.
This would have been ok if the pthread kernel didn't assume signal would
return 0 for success and non-zero for failure. Signal() returns the
previous handler. SIG_IGN != 0, so pthreads thought the call failed.
Resulting in a call to abort().
In engine-m68000-netbsd.c: Move the declaration of __sycall() before the
function it's first used in
In syscall-m68000-netbsd.S don't use the compat_13 sigprocmask/sigsuspend
syscall number constants, they were just SYS__sigprocmask/suspend.
Fix the configure script to do the same dance for the 1.3ish systems as
for the other architectures.
Fix a typo in config.guess.
not built in a batch on 1.4 (it may compile, ut it doesn't run).
Also make library building more uniform regardless of MKxxxx or
NOxxxx settings in mk.conf.
