Description Kevin Zheng 2012-06-19 05:00:32 UTC
FreeBSD is moving to the CLANG/LLVM compiler. Firefox currently fails to build using CLANG, complaining that "MMX instruction set not enabled". CLANG seems to treat MMX and SSE separately, and MMX must be explicitly added in CFLAGS. See the following link for more details:

http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-ports@freebsd.org/msg41830.html

Fix: Apply the following patch, if it makes sense. I'm not good with conditional makefiles.

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: Add the following to /etc/make.conf:
CC=clang
CXX=clang++
CPP=clang-cpp

Attempt to build www/firefox (it doesn't work).
