strip query
I was using the wrong strip -- probably the result of an attempt at getting
"ld" to link properly several weeks ago. I must have installed the GNU
strip *somehow*. Since it isn't in the source tree, I'm a bit puzzled about
how I managed to do this.
(Sits and thinks for a bit...)
The fallout was that it looks like I managed to use the wrong strip when
applying the glob() patches, and made everything that calls glob() do
nothing but report "Abort". Things like "login" and "su". Cripes. I ended
up just selectively overwriting the offending binaries with the install
package. "strip" must have been one of these...
I grabbed the 2.8 source, and recompiled usr.bin/strip, being careful to NOT
strip with the old strip on install, and all is well.
Thanks to all who gave assistance.
