Yes I had to do this but after that I had the problem with an unresolved reference of getloadavg in src/fns.c I simply made the code not call it. This is presumable some configuration problem. Also with 19.22 you need to get the new freebsd.h and unexec.c stuff (which is in the version of on the walnut creek archive). This is part of 19.23 (and of course 19.24 and I see 19.25 is just out ...). The getloadavg problem is still there in 19.23 and 19.24 (I haven't been able to check 19.25 yet). A second problem I have no solution (or workaround for) is ^M being appended to lines from gdb running as a sub-process. This is I'm sure also a configuration problem (it didn't happen with 19.22 under 386bsd 0.1). I remember chasing this problem in 19.7 on sun sparcs and it was something to do with termio(s) declarations. Has anyone else found/worried about such problems?
