As xterm modifies the 50 exported termcap, this would cause those modifications to be ignored. 51kcah 52 53hack wi-at-big-endian-bus 54cdate 15 Mar 2002 55who martin 56file dev/ic/wireg.h 57descr Add an option to access the underlying bus in big endian byte order 58 to work around deficiencies in bus_space_{read,write}_* macros. 59 Those don't allow the implementation of a proper pcmcia bus space 60 tag. 61kcah 62 63hack specific knowledge of colours in curses code 64cdate Sun Apr 6 11:05:24 BST 2003 65who jdc 66file lib/libcurses/color.c : r1.24 67descr 68 Swap red/blue and yellow/cyan colours for COLOR_OTHER. 69 Fix is to enhance libtermcap to understand terminfo-style % sequences. 70 See also: 71 http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-userlevel/2003/04/06/0000.html 72kcah 73 74hack Compensation for differing types of LINUX_USRSTACK and USRSTACK 75cdate 21 Aug 2003 76who he 77file sys/miscfs/procfs/procfs_linux.c : 1.14 78descr 79 Not all ports have LINUX_USRSTACK and/or USRSTACK defined as 80 literals/constants, but refer to variables of a type which is 81 not "unsigned long", causing compilation of procfs_linux.c to 82 fail with "makes integer from pointer without a cast". This 83 is observed on e.g. the sun3 port. Ideally the "types" for 84 symbols should be consistent across all ports. 85kcah 86 87hack GCC2 isn't C99 88cdate 5 December 2003 89who mrg 90file gnu/dist/binutils/ld/ldlex.c: r1.2 91descr 92 ldlex.c is generated from ldlex.l and we get macro redefinition 93 errors from it if __STDC_VERSION__ is not C99 compliant. This 94 hack forces NetBSD 1.6 and later systems to also include <stdint.h> 95 to get the relevant definitions. This hack should be backed out 96 when all platforms have switched away from GCC2. 97kcah 98 99hack gcc-strict-aliasing 100cdate 6 August 2004 101who junyoung 102pr 26516 103file src/usr.sbin/racoon/racoon/Makefile : 1.21 104descr 105 GCC issues a warning "dereferencing type-punned pointer will break 106 strict-aliasing rules" when compiling 107 crypto/dist/kame/racoon/crypto/openssl.c with -O[23s]. Note that this 108 is due to use of type casting in a non-standard way in the code and 109 not a compiler bug. Once a new release of KAME with a proper fix 110 applied is imported this should be backed out. 111kcah 112 113hack gcc 3.3.3 wrong uninitialised variable 114mdate 12 May 2006 115who he 116file usr.bin/msgc/msg_sys.def : 1.33-1.34 117file distrib/utils/sysinst/aout2elf.c : 1.11 118descr 119 Gcc 3.3.3 gets some -Wuninitialized warnings wrong.
