>Description:
      Recompiling the kernel to get my sound card working. FreeBSD version 4.7 installed with X-Developer package. Following Procedure 1 from handbook. Seems to compile OK, but linking stops with Error code 1 linking kernel, in function 'if_setlladdr', undefined reference to 'arp_ifinit'. Seems to me that the linker is trying to find something that is not installed, but I installed the complete X-Developer package from the start.

State-Changed-Why:  
Build errors should be posted to either the freebsd-questions or the 
freebsd-stable mailing lists rather than filing a PR. 

Also, to debug a problem like this you need to supply your complete 
kernel configuration file since that is most likely where the problem 
is. 

It might also be a good idea to update to a more recent FreeBSD 
version if possible - not that 4.7 should be broken, it's just easier 
for people to help find your problem when you run the same version 
they do.
