Description Shaun Amott 2006-03-07 10:10:05 UTC 
I attempted to build the lang/erlang port on a FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE
machine, but it failed, giving linking errors to do with threading
libraries. The problem was resolved by defining WITHOUT_ODBC for the
port; this is already detected and automatically disabled for
OSVERSION < 500000; but, evidently, this test is too narrow.

Fix: 

Change relevant test to:

.if ${OSVERSION} < 502010
WITHOUT_ODBC=	yes
.endif

Unless anyone knows the exact version where the problem is resolved.
How-To-Repeat: 
Build lang/erlang on a (horribly out of date) 5.2.1 machine.

The port was fixed using OSVERSION < 502102 (new threading libraries.)
