binaries in /bin and /sbin installed in /lib. Only the versioned files
reside in /lib, the .so symlink continues to live /usr/lib so the
toolchain doesn't need to be modified.

FreeBSD. This method attempts to centralize all the necessary hacks
or work arounds in one of two places in the tree (src/Makefile.inc1
and src/tools/build). We build a small compatibility library
(libbuild.a) as well as selectively installing necessary include
files. We then include this directory when building host binaries.
This removes all the past release compatibilty hacks from various
places in the tree. We still build on tip of stable and current. I
will work with those that want to support more, although I anticipate
it will just work.
Many thanks to ru@, obrien@ and jhb@ for providing valuable input at
various stage of implementation, as well as for working together to
positively effect a change for the better.
under way to move the remnants of the a.out toolchain to ports. As the
comment in src/Makefile said, this stuff is deprecated and one should not
expect this to remain beyond 4.0-REL. It has already lasted WAY beyond
that.
Notable exceptions:
gcc - I have not touched the a.out generation stuff there.
ldd/ldconfig - still have some code to interface with a.out rtld.
old as/ld/etc - I have not removed these yet, pending their move to ports.
some includes - necessary for ldd/ldconfig for now.
Tested on: i386 (extensively), alpha
called <machine/_types.h>.
o <machine/ansi.h> will continue to live so it can define MD clock
macros, which are only MD because of gratuitous differences between
architectures.
o Change all headers to make use of this. This mainly involves
changing:
#ifdef _BSD_FOO_T_
typedef _BSD_FOO_T_ foo_t;
#undef _BSD_FOO_T_
#endif
to:
#ifndef _FOO_T_DECLARED
typedef __foo_t foo_t;
#define _FOO_T_DECLARED
#endif

via INCS. Implemented INCSLINKS (equivalent to SYMLINKS) to
handle symlinking include files. Allow for multiple groups of
include files to be installed, with the powerful INCSGROUPS knob.
Documentation to follow.
Added standard `includes' and `incsinstall' targets, use them
in Makefile.inc1. Headers from the following makefiles were
not installed before (during `includes' in Makefile.inc1):
kerberos5/lib/libtelnet/Makefile
lib/libbz2/Makefile
lib/libdevinfo/Makefile
lib/libform/Makefile
lib/libisc/Makefile
lib/libmenu/Makefile
lib/libmilter/Makefile
lib/libpanel/Makefile
Replaced all `beforeinstall' targets for installing includes
with the INCS stuff.
Renamed INCDIR to INCSDIR, for consistency with FILES and SCRIPTS,
and for compatibility with NetBSD. Similarly for INCOWN, INCGRP,
and INCMODE.
Consistently use INCLUDEDIR instead of /usr/include.
gnu/lib/libstdc++/Makefile and gnu/lib/libsupc++/Makefile changes
were only lightly tested due to the missing contrib/libstdc++-v3.
I fully tested the pre-WIP_GCC31 version of this patch with the
contrib/libstdc++.295 stuff.
These changes have been tested on i386 with the -DNO_WERROR "make
world" and "make release".
These might not be present in /usr/include, or they may be
incompatible with the version we are building (for library
upgrades/downgrades).
This stopped the RELENG_4 buildworld on a -CURRENT box.
Well, this only fixes the issue if MFC'ed. :-)
this is not strictly compliant with XSI curses, it enables us to pass
const strings to many more functions that are actually const safe than
before. This should be harmless.
