I assume you are on a MacTel machine, as why GCC won't build. As for |
21 |
the userland, yes we aim for a GNU userland, because I have the opinion |
22 |
that the Gentoo mainline tree is written for that userland. Diego does |
23 |
a great job making the tree able to cope with a BSD userland, but to |
24 |
avoid all these little annoyances with find, awk, etc. in prefix it is |
25 |
only a small effort to make it a GNU userland. |
