Hi,

Thanks so much for the update. I checked autoreconf --help and it has something about --warnings, I tried that and still have -Werror in Makefile, so I went through configure and removed all references to -Werror, then re- ./configure and it's not in the Makefile.. 

The build finished, I tried running bind10 and it actually appears to have started.. yay.

However I have not yet taken the time to do any configuration or verify anything. :)

I'll research the bug and see what's up, thanks. Maybe clang/LLVM is a good alternative. I think I read some people are building FreeBSD with clang./


Also FYI the two "problem" header files in boost are identical between 1.48 release version and 1.49/trunk so I didn't bother rebuilding boost.

Have a great weekend!
