I have been dabbling in C recently and while working on a project I tried
to use this line in my code and I got the same exact warning.
'strcpy(length2, strlen(cbuff));'  Now I don't know much about C or why
exactly gcc is puking at this instruction but I'ld look for 'strlen' in
the source 'dcc.c'. If anyone can tell me how I could solve this I'm sure
two people would be a little happier :)

BTW, what version of NetBSD are you running Josh?

Bye.

P.S. It might interest someone that Josh and I are using the same kernel.
(GENERICSBC-26)
