Re: building current - signal 6

[Erik Fair <fair%netbsd.org@localhost>]

In /usr/include/sys/signal.h find:

#define SIGABRT         6       /* abort() */

See also signal(7) and abort(3).

It would appear that make(1) called abort(3) since rm(1) doesn’t have any direct calls to it that I could find by reading the base source. Cursory grep through /usr/src/usr.bin/make/* shows possibilities …

Perhaps turning on some make debug options will reveal more.
