    Has anyong setup chromium on FreeBSD machines?  Apparently the use of malloc.h in FreeBSD 5.X is an error, so I had to modify the chromium.h file.  Now I'm getting these errors:

    endian.c:30: warning: dereferenceing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules

    I get the same error for line 38, then the compilation terminates.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    J.R.

      Answering my own questions again... Ok, so I modified the FreeBSD.mk file and added:

      -fno-strict-aliasing  to the CXXFLAGS and CFLAGS.

      Compilation got further, and now looks like I'm missing some libraries, so almost there.  I think I'll be writing up how to do a whole install on FreeBSD if and when I get everything running.
