Troubles upgrading from 6.3 to 7

Hello

I am new to bsd. I'm trying to upgrade from 6.3 Release to the latest stable 7.

I created the following csup file

*default host=cvsup1.ca.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_7
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all

I then used csup to get all the source files. I cd'd to /usr/scr and tried to run make buildworld and after 15-20 min get this error.

I have tried cleaning up with

# chflags -R noschg /usr/obj/usr
# rm -rf /usr/obj/usr
# cd /usr/src
# make cleandir
# make cleandir

Still I get the error.

Error:

Thanks in advance for your help.
 
it's dirty solution, but try linking libc.so.7 to libc.so.6:
# ln -s /lib/libc.so.6 /lib/libc.so.7

I don't have a clue now why it's looking for libc.so.7 on a 6.x system...
 
Well that seemed to get me a bit farther along. But still an error.

do you, by any chance, have gcc from ports and not the base system's one?
