been intention, it allowed for weird section names like "3xyzzy". We
don't have them, either.)

how embarassing ! This turns out to be a bug in infptrace.c. Below
is a patch. Could some kind soul apply it ?

of the linker to enforce linking of modules in command line order it is
not possible to link gdb shared with -lcompat.
*HACK ALERT*
Removed -lcompat from LDADD and bring in the necessary functions out of
libcompat as a source module until the linker can be fixed.
underlying bugs which are caused by mixing static/shared libraries with
this change in place.
The shlib code is not capable of supporting this feature in it's present
state and will need significant modifications in order to do so.
in libc, we can get rid of the private/special copies of yp_*.c
files and rpcgen them at compile time instead. This leaves us with
just one unique source files: yppush.c

use it. :-)
It now explicitly requires the specification of a directory to import
from, either as an argument to the script, or by asking the user about
it. (Previously, it implicitly used `.', like cvs import does.)
Also implemented an option `-n', which does essentially the same like
the overall CVS option `-n': show only what would have been done,
don't do any commitment. Note that since the modules' database is
checked out in place (and not commited back), it will erroneously be
reported as to be imported, too:
cvs import: Importing /home/ncvs/ports/foobar/foo/modules
I ports/foobar/foo/modules/CVS
N ports/foobar/foo/modules/modules
This is an unwanted side-effect, but gives the user the option to see
if the `ed' magic did the right thing when editing modules/modules.
Rod, can you please check the function ``checktag'' in the script if it
will be restritctive enough?
interpret it. I've preserved the bugs that perl must be installed
to build part of perl and that it must be installed in the wrong place
(no ${DESTDIR}).
members over shared library members. This modification causes the linker
to use the first definition it sees for a symbol instead of having
priorities based on the library type. This modification should allow
gdb to compile again.

me. If it doesn't work, it's my fault not his.
default switches, template functions get EXTERNAL linkage in each file
in which they occur, causing multiple definition errors during
linking. The enclosed patch (from gnu.g++.bug) appears to solve the
problem (I enclose the accompanying message as well).
This patch fixes the multiply defined template functions bug
which was introduced in 2.6.1.

one is much more intelligent, not only that it would accept multiple
man page locations, it also behaves like ``make'' in that it will only
deal with cat pages that are out of date (by default).
Wolfram also wrote a man page for it.
