hey everybody,

OTP-25 is now at RC2 status, and as it has arm64 JIT compiler
support I was especially keen on giving it a try! The diff
below means you can, too.

https://reviews.freebsd.org/D34675

has the current patch, but due to a limitation in my ports
skills, you'll need to manually fetch the renamed source file
and drop it into your /usr/ports/distfiles/erlang/ folder:

curl -#LO --output-dir /usr/ports/distfiles/erlang/ \
   https://people.freebsd.org/~dch/tmp/erlang-otp-25.0rc2_GH0.tar.gz

For the JIT on arm64, it looks like we need a FreeBSD src patch,
andrew@ has provided a first cut, which works very well for me
here. https://github.com/erlang/otp/issues/5817 has the details.

A+
Dave
