Modified files:
rpm/rpmio rpmio.h
Log:
Woooohoooo, declaring a function and a function pointer is totally
different in ISO C when it comes to "extern". For function
declarations
the "extern" is acceptable to be left out (although one can
provide it
here for pedantic reasons). But for the _declaration_ of a
function
pointer the "extern" is absolutely mandatory. If left out one
simply
_defines_ a global variable of the same name as the function!
This leads to many nice side-effects. Most notable to the nice,
correct
but rather confusing warning from ld(1) like: "alignment 16 of
symbol
`Getpass' in ../rpmio/.libs/librpmio.so is smaller than 32 in
rpmdeps.o"
