svn commit: r211695 - head/sys/kern

[M. Warner Losh]

Hi Pluknet...

I think that kern/Makefile is an ex-parrot and plan on removing it
later today.

Warner

P.S.  sorry for the top post, but I wanted things in the archives..

: Yes, there is tags target in src/Makefile, I didn't looked too much

: I found this in NetBSD's kern/Makefile:
: +# XXX
: +# [Note by Perry Metzger, Sept. 1998]
: +# As it stands, the tags support below is hopelessly
: +# broken. Just look at the names of the architectures it is dealing
: +# with and where it expects to find the support for them to see why.
: +# I've left the stuff in this Makefile alone in the hope that someone
: +# will fix it someday -- I am assuming that it might help that
: +# person if they have the old Makefile goo left in place as a starting
: +# point.
: +# XXX
: 
: ps. BTW I tried to make tags from src/ (with clean obj, if that
: matters) and the target
: began to build my gcc (cc/cc_tools) after going through various world paths.
: Is that intended?
