How to handle a new operating system?

[Arsenij Solovjev]

Hi dear GNU Team,

I’m part of a team that creates our own distribution of FreeBSD called CROSSOS.
I’ve currently run into the problem that I cannot compile certain third party 
sofware (python gevent).
The problem seems to be that config.guess/sub don’t recognise the output of the 
uname call to our kernel.

What would be the recommended way to go about this? We can of course overwrite 
config.guess/sub in our own portstree.

What is the criteria for an operating system to be listed in config.guess?



Mit besten Grüßen
