Christoph, please bear with me. It's been long enough since I worked
with FreeBSD that I don't even know what "vital information" I'm not
giving you. I'm peddling as fast as I can, and loving every minute,
but I'm not "there" yet.

This is 12-STABLE as of a few days ago, and yes, it's running on amd64/HAMMER.

I'll see if I can figure out how to get the 'configure output' from a
port... That does seem to be a useful thing to know!

Cristoph, I am installing ports as they come, out of the box. The
reality is that many ports still use LLVM80, and, even worse, gcc6.

I truly 'get' that you maintainers (too) are peddling as fast as you can! :D

I've applied Martin's workaround to my /etc/make.conf. I am in the
process of rebuilding the whole mule again as advice in response to an
earlier question left me with a very moth-eaten disk.

We'll see if it's happy this time!
