[darwinbuild] First use of darwinbuild

[Kevin Van Vechten]

As you've noticed, DarwinBuild appears to be missing the Kerberos's  
dependency information.

Kerberos is a bit of a pathological case, since it requires Xcode to  
build, and it requires API that is not available on a pure-Darwin  
system.

Luckily I think the dependency and API issues can be worked around by  
passing -nochroot to the darwinbuild command.  This instructs  
DarwinBuild to build "out in the open" and gives it access to things  
that Kerberos will need, like the CoreServices framework.  However,  
it appears the Kerberos relies on some PrivateHeaders from the  
Security framework, so to take this approach you'd need to install  
them on your base system.  They're available at <http:// 
darwinsource.opendarwin.org/Headers/8C46/Security.hdrs.tar.gz>.

There's a second issue, which is that DarwinBuild tries to produce  
universal binaries by default.  You'll need to update to the latest  
DarwinBuild in CVS to get a bug fix related to editing build  
information.  I also had to make a change to the default 8B15.plist,  
so you'll need to reload that.

After upgrading darwinbuild, from your build directory:
# rm .build/8B15.plist
# darwinbuild -init 8C46
# darwinxref -b 8A428 edit

Change the RC_ARCHS="ppc i386"; line in the environment dictionary to:
RC_ARCHS="ppc";

Then you should be able to build Kerberos!

Thanks,

- Kevin
