Re: machine/platform separation

[Matthew Dillon <dillon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

:but how does the machine abi differ from the cpu arch?  i mean, which headers go to machine instead of cpu?
:
:>     			BUILD_PLATFORM	pc32	platform build

:so it seems i can't convice you to use "i386" for the platform?  the problem is that there are a myriad place in the source tree which check for i386, or worse, use i386 as a part of the path.  repo-moving all of this to pc32 seems totally unnecessary and wrong.  just have a look at usr.sbin or how man handles the pathnames.  this renaming is a pain in the ass once you look outside the kernel.

    The location of the header files is synthesized in /usr/include when the
    world/kernel is installed.  It has little to do with how they are
    arranged in the source tree.
