>Description:

With ports tree at 321720, I get *lots* of:

make: "/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk" line 1638: warning: Couldn't read shell's output for "if /sbin/sysctl -n compat.ia32.maxvmem >/dev/null 2>&1; then echo YES; fi"

updating ports, etc.
I'm not sure if make works correctly at all

	
>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:

somebody mentioned in ports@ that this
is because make is now a bmake, but
I'm not sure. And anyway, what am I to do?
