                      4:      BUILDING -- Procedure for building NetBSD from source code.

1.101     wiz         6: REQUIREMENTS
1.1       tv          7:      NetBSD is designed to be buildable on most POSIX-compliant host systems.
1.101     wiz         8:      The basic build procedure is the same whether compiling natively (on the
                      9:      same NetBSD architecture) or cross compiling (on another architecture or
1.1       tv         10:      OS).
                     11:
                     12:      This source tree contains a special subtree, ``tools'', which uses the
                     13:      host system to create a build toolchain for the target architecture.  The
                     14:      host system must have at least C and C++ compilers in order to create the
1.101     wiz        15:      toolchain (make is not required); all other tools are created as part of
1.53      reed       16:      the NetBSD build process.  (See the environment variables section below
                     17:      if you need to override or manually select your compilers.)

                     87:                        system requires a modern Bourne-like shell with POSIX-
                     88:                        compliant features, and also requires support for the
