Yah, that makes sense. I guess this means that the system we rebuild won't be capable of building itself unless we somehow find an old as or srcs. > Given that we know the assembler has predefined symbols, which means > renaming $mount, I think we might as well take the path where we modify > the source code so that it can be built with the tools we have, which is > your option 2) above. And of course, document the changes. The approach I'm taking currently is to use the 1972_stuff "as" (v2) using apout and some sed magic so that the original sources are undisturbed. The code is in the svn as tools/assem. > Warren Tim Newsham http://www.thenewsh.com/~newsham/
