So to be doing things right I just switched my main laptop back to
openbsd so setting up and getting it on current before I continue.

Answering on the egcc requirement. lv2 puts out a lot of warnings for a
compiler less than gcc 4.6 I believe. Clang as the compiler does not
solve this. I could alter the warning supression code delivered from
upstream but I felt if upstream wanted that compiler specifically it was
best to give them that compiler.

You know the real problem with this is I have delivered nothing to
really test lv2 with. so....

Let me spin this back around once I have some of the other tools that
need this ready. Now I got a main dev station back on line soon I can
work on that. Oh and I will also get the lmms port update wrapped up.
