Re: pkgsrc reports

[Alex Hornung <ahornung@xxxxxxxxx>]

Rumko,

the patch that was proposed by  OBATA Akio / obache@NetBSD.org works
correctly and is a good solution. I've also submitted it upstream[1].
The remaining build issue is something that needs investigation and
affects a number of packages. It might well not be mono related, so
there is absolutely no reason to hold off this patch.

The other issue happens due to the linker script forcing the
__progname symbol to be local by using "local: *". Similar things
happen to xchat and asterisk, at least. This issue might well be in
other toolsuites, since NetBSD doesn't seem to be affected.

Cheers,
Alex
