This is a very cut down implementation of a "busybox" style binary
for FreeBSD.

It's based on the rescue build system, which uses the crunchgen functionality
to build binaries.

It's a work in progress.

Import the first cut of "bsdbox". This uses the existing crunchgen infrastructure to build a series of tools designed to replace the base and networking tools on an embedded system. It reuses 'bsd.crunchgen.mk' to drive the actual file creation. The rescue build system also uses this. Unlike busybox, it doesn't include its own source - instead, it just builds from the sources in /usr/src/ and leverages the existing BSD framework. Thie is still quite messy and could do with a whole lot of cleaning up. However it is proving to be very useful with my current build framework, allowing me to build binary root images that are about 30% less than simply cherrypicking files and libraries from an installworld. 2012-01-05 19:56:31 -05:00			$FreeBSD$
