I have been trying to install galeon from pkgsrc and I keep
running into a write issue with / filling up. It turns out my swap
partition (129 Mb) is not being used: /tmp is mounted under / and
cc uses that as scratch space, filling it up. I watched top while
the build was going on: swap stayed empty (129 mb free), but the
build failed due to a lack of disk space.
I blew away /tmp, created a bogus tmp directory on a disk with a
lot of free space and linked it: tried my build again, problem
went away.
everything looks fine in fstab: the disklabel is good. What am I
missing?

Nobody can be exactly like me. Sometimes even I have trouble
doing it.
