I'm unhappy with the (unsigned) casts for the enum constants, but there is no way around that since the base type of enums is int by definition, and there is no way in C90 to explicitly specify the base type of an enum type. The (size_t) casts on the pointer differences are another pain point, but for these as well, C90 does not have a ready-made solution. A possible workaround would be an inline function ptr_diff that returns size_t instead of ptrdiff_t, but that would make the code look even more bloated than with the casts. The remaining casts to (char), (int) and (time_t) look so suspicious that it's easy enough to stumble upon them, as soon as someone finds the time to fix these properly by adding a function ParseInt or ParseSeconds. |

NetBSD
NetBSD is a free, fast, secure, and highly portable Unix-like Open Source operating system. It is available for a wide range of platforms, from large-scale servers and powerful desktop systems to handheld and embedded devices.
Building
You can cross-build NetBSD from most UNIX-like operating systems. To build for amd64 (x86_64), in the src directory:
./build.sh -U -u -j4 -m amd64 -O ~/obj release
Additional build information available in the BUILDING file.
Binaries
Testing
On a running NetBSD system:
cd /usr/tests; atf-run | atf-report
Troubleshooting
- Send bugs and patches via web form.
- Subscribe to the mailing lists. The netbsd-users list is a good choice for many problems; watch current-users if you follow the bleeding edge of NetBSD-current.
- Join the community IRC channel #netbsd @ freenode.
