hi-

    I'm currently testing on Darwin/OSX (mojave) with a new pkgsrc build.
Heree are two issues:

[1] the simulations build fails if you are logged in via ssh due to
    an "SDL" error:

cp BIN/microvax3900 BIN/vax
BIN/microvax3900 /usr/local/src/pkgsrc/emulators/simh/work/simh-0fe4bf3281a4d1f9fd10bba07cf0f7e40da92fc3/VAX/tests/microvax3900_test.ini
 _RegisterApplication(), FAILED TO establish the default connection to the \
WindowServer, _CGSDefaultConnection() is NULL. SDL Video subsystem can't initialize

    it works fine if you are building it while logged in directly on 
    the console rather via ssh.

    is there a way to tell SDL not to do this or just switch it off?



[2] on Darwin the default for simh is to compile with "-O0" but pkgsrc
    patch-makefile does the following to allow the environment
    to override this:

 else
   ifneq (,$(findstring clang,$(COMPILER_NAME))$(findstring LLVM,$(COMPILER_NAME)))
-    CFLAGS_O = -O0
+    CFLAGS_O ?= -O0
     ifeq (Darwin,$(OSTYPE))
       NO_LTO = 1
     endif


     this causes it to switch to "-O2" from pkgsrc which is almost ok, but
     but to get "-O2" to function it also requires the "-fno-strict-overflow" 
     (and pkgsrc doesn't set that).   

     The result is a build error when the microvax3900 fails to pass 
     the EHKAA test due to "-O2" without "-fno-strict-overflow":

MicroVAX 3900 simulator V4.0-0 Current        git commit id: 0fe4bf32        Build: \
Unsupported=include+lib

HALT instruction, PC: 8000279F (CMPL R8,R3)

MicroVAX 3900 Hardware Core Instruction test EHKAA - FAILED

gnumake: *** [BIN/microvax3900] Error 1



one way to resolve this problem is to put:

	CFLAGS.Darwin+= -fno-strict-overflow

in the pkgsrc Makefile.  if you do that, then the EHKAA test works fine
(at least on Darwin)...  but I wonder if there are other systems where
the patch-makefile is setting -O2 without "-fno-strict-overflow" where
it is needed?
