The convention sort of varies based on OS ... NetBSD platforms use e.g. alphanbsd-tdep.c vs. the Linux alpha-linux-tdep.c. .mt and .mh files for NetBSD in the processor-specific directory are usually just called e.g. alpha/nbsd.mh. So, for your configurations, select whatever convention suits you. But be prepared for other OS config conventions to creep into the mix at some point :-) -- -- Jason R. Thorpe
