I've updated pkgtools/libnbcompat to 20040814. Changes from version
20040813 include:
 * Adding a regex(3) implementation for those platforms that don't
 have one, e.g. IRIX 5.3.
 * Allow nbcompat.h to be included multiple times in case it's needed
 to override values of set by config.h in bootstrap packages. This
 should fix problems with building pkg_install and pax on platforms
 that have /usr/include/glob.h.
 * Remove namespace.h, which should be a no-op since we're building
 a userland library separate from the NetBSD sources.
 * Remove HAVE_CONFIG_H checks from sources since we're always going
 to have and and we're always going to be including it.
 * Rename all inclusion guards in nbcompat/*.h to be _NBCOMPAT_*_H_ so
 that it won't get triggered by any settings in system headers.
The tarball of the new bootstrap code is at:
	http://www.netbsd.org/~jlam/bootstrap-kit-20040815.tgz
To test, please fetch the tarball, extract, then do a fresh bootstrap,
e.g.
	ftp http://www.netbsd.org/~jlam/bootstrap-kit-20040815.tgz
	tar zxvf bootstrap-kit-20040815.tgz
	cd bootstrap-kit-20040815/bootstrap
	./bootstrap --prefix=$(pwd)/pkg --sysconfdir=$(pwd)/pkg/etc \
		--pkgdbdir=$(pwd)/.db --ignore-case-check --ignore-user-check
I have tested on the following systems already:
	FreeBSD-4.8/i386
	MacOS X 10.2.8
	NetBSD-1.6.2/i386
I am interested in results for the following platforms:
	FreeBSD-5.x/i386
	IRIX 6.5
	IRIX 5.3
	MacOS X 10.3.4
	Linux
	NetBSD-2.0_BETA
	Solaris 7
	Solaris 8
	Solaris 9
Please let me know the outcome regardless of whether it succeeds or
fails. If there are any failures, please submit a log of the build.
	Thanks,
