Scot,
The problem was not getting the VFS modules compiled, but rather
getting them installed.
I found a brute force workaround was to manually add 'lib/samba/vfs/
recycle.so' to the '/net/samba3/pkg-plist' file.
I know this is not the proper thing to do, but it works for getting a
package built. I would have preferred a tweak to the Makefile that
would work for everyone, but I'm afraid my Makefile reading skills are
not up to snuff.
Thanks,
Erik
