Compiling on FreeBSD, fails with: Error: Invalid type: expected string, found :

Hello,

I am attempting to build Cyclone on FreeBSD-14 (CURRENT) on amd64. cyclone-bootstrap builds successfully, and I have created a FreeBSD Port of that (in my local working Ports tree), and have started on a package for Cyclone. The build for cyclone fails at:

LLVM-16 is the C compiler. I have patched both Cyclone and Cyclone-bootstrap to use the tommath libraries provided by the system.

Very cool you are working on this!

Hmm. I can take a closer look but would need a working environment. Do you either have a system that I can connect to, or instructions for setting up your FreeBSD environment locally?

I will try and look at setting something up. Busy at the moment, so it be a couple of days. Thanks so much.

I have not forgotten this, unfortunately less exciting and boring life related crap has gotten in the way, I will return.
