# 249657 19-Apr-2013 ed

Add the Clang specific -Wmissing-variable-declarations to WARNS=6.

This compiler flag enforces that that people either mark variables
static or use an external declarations for the variable, similar to how
-Wmissing-prototypes works for functions.

Due to the fact that Yacc/Lex generate code that cannot trivially be
changed to not warn because of this (lots of yy* variables), add a
NO_WMISSING_VARIABLE_DECLARATIONS that can be used to turn off this
specific compiler warning.

# 208189 17-May-2010 kaiw

Removed ar(1)'s support for compressed archives. This change removes
ar(1)'s dependencies on compressor libraries -lz, -lbz2 and -llzma and
fixes building HEAD on some versions of FreeBSD[78]. Option -j and -z
is now accepted but ignored.

Compressed ar(1) archives are not useful without a ld(1) that can read
them. Also, the current ar(1) compression scheme prevents random
access of archive members and needs to be redesigned anyway.

# 201386 02-Jan-2010 ed

Build usr.bin/ with WARNS=6 by default.

Also add some missing $FreeBSD$ to keep svn happy.


# 183220 20-Sep-2008 kaiw

Fix build.


# 183218 20-Sep-2008 kaiw

Add support for option "-M", which is used to operate ar(1) in a
script mode like the MRI(Microtec Research Inc.) "librarian" program.

Originally this option is provided by Binutils ar(1) to ease the
transition for developers who are used to writing "librarian" scripts.

We added this option to BSD ar(1) because:

1. Further improve the compatibility with Binutils ar(1).
2. There are still a few software using this -M option. (at least one
in our ports collection)

Suggested by: rink & erwin


# 176556 25-Feb-2008 ru

Make again BSD ar(1) the default system ar(1), now properly handling
source upgrades by falling back to GNU ar(1) as necessary. Option
WITH_BSDAR is gone. Option _WITH_GNUAR to aid in upgrades is *not*
supposed to be set by the user.

Stop bootstrapping BSD ar(1) on the next __FreeBSD_version bump, as
there are no known bugs in it. Bump __FreeBSD_version to anticipate
this and to flag the switch to BSD ar(1), should it be needed for
something.

# 176455 22-Feb-2008 obrien

Clean up created turds.


# 176454 22-Feb-2008 obrien

We build important toolchain statically. So build BSD 'ar' statically
when its replacing GNU 'ar'.


# 176453 22-Feb-2008 obrien

Re-introduce the new BSDLed 'ar' to the build.
It is installed as "bsdar" unless WANT_BSDAR is defined.

Discussed with: kaiw


# 176440 21-Feb-2008 ru

Fix static linkage.


# 176434 21-Feb-2008 kaiw

Import ar(1) front-end. (aka 'BSD' ar)
