The port archivers/gtar fails to build on 9-CURRENT/amd64, looks like it doesn't like building as root by default? checking for mkdtemp... yes checking whether mkfifo rejects trailing slashes... yes checking whether mknod can create fifo without root privileges... configure: error: in `/usr/ports/archivers/gtar/work/tar-1.25': configure: error: you should not run configure as root (set FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1 in environment to bypass this check) See `config.log' for more details. ===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly. Please report the problem to naddy@FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the "/usr/ports/archivers/gtar/work/tar-1.25/config.log" including the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. an `ls /var/db/pkg`). *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/archivers/gtar. *** Error code 1

State Changed From-To: open->closed I've fixed this by pre-loading gl_cv_func_mknod_works, so configure can skip that particular test and building as root works.
