Good day!

I just pulled the fresh rakudo sources, Configured them with
--gen-parrot and the parrot build fails​:

It looks like I'm having the same problem on openbsd, which I posted
about here a few days ago. Trying be a little more helpful, I set up a
cron job to update and smoke-test parrot. The smoke test ran OK with
the older revision of parrot, r37017, then I updated to the current
rev, r37540. That gets the same build error at the "./miniparrot
config_lib.pasm " step.

Thing is, I don't know how to report a build failure to smolder. "make
smoke" won't run if "make" won't run!

So, what's the way to tell smolder "make" failed?

I'm getting further but still failing to get Rakudo working (OS X
10.5.6, gcc 4.0.1), same parrot revision (r37414)​:

Nm, installed libparrot was interfering.

I am still getting a "Null PMC access in get_pmc_keyed_str()" error
when building parrot as part of rakudo on my OpenBSD system, same
error Alex had when starting this thread. I've tracked it down to line
170 in runtime/parrot/library/parrotlib.pir

.sub find_file_path
  .param string name
  .param pmc array
  .local string ret
  .local pmc iter
# The following line, creating a new 'Iterator', causes Null PMC access
  iter = new 'Iterator', array
  iter = 0 #ITERATE_FROM_START

NEXT​:
  null ret
  unless iter goto END

  $P0 = shift iter
...

I'd like help on fixing this. I know next to nothing about parrot programming!

Also, it'd be nice if parrot could tell us the line number when it
hits an error compiling a PIR file.

I've been able to successfully build and test (make test only) rakudo on
FreeBSD 7.1 and OpenBSD 4.4 today. (spectest is a different story, but
that's not part of this ticket.) I suppose this ticket can be closed?

Yes, I confirm success in building current Rakudo on FreeBSD.
