I've tried compiling the sources starting with the kernel and working out to the apps. There seems to be a catch 22 that prevents these sources from building on stock NetBSD. I get a variety of errors from these builds which means I may have an evironmental problem. Can someone please give some clues as to what it takes to rebuild the entire tree? I need to know if the compilers need to refreshed. There are some issues with DYNAMIC libraries and header problems.
