Hi all,

[ I'm actually replying to one of Martin's emails, but I've only just 
joined the list since spotting said email on the web archives. Sorry if 
I'm breaking anyone's threading here by replying to Ben's email.. ]

Just a quick question about the bootstrap script - is this the only way 
to do it? I only ask really because I maintain the FreeBSD port and it's 
got me thinking about how I'd actually run that from the port's Makefile.

I guess something like

pre-build:
	${SH} {WRKSRC}/bootstrap

might work.

Is there anyone on this list who knows about the internals of FreeBSD's 
ports infrastructure and whether the existing Autoconf macros in that 
would work better than running the bootstrap script?

James
