>Description:
I'm filing this under kern, as it affects the src/sys/ directory.

The current sys/cdefs.h file lacks support for PCC, which means that
when users install PCC from ports, they have a compiler that isn't
really useful.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
The following patch is incomplete, but already fixes the __packed
attribute. I'm currently discussing on the mailing list how to implement
__aligned() and __section(), but those can wait for now. It would be
wonderful if this would already make it into RELENG_7, because then
FreeBSD users can already start tinkering around with PCC on an
unpatched install.

A cool thing is: when you apply this patch, all apps in src/bin/ compile
without a flaw! :-)
