I thought the AIX 3 problem occurred only when the code uses #pragma alloca. Since the code no longer use that, I hope it's not an issue with AIX 3 any more. If it is still an issue, and if AIX 3 machines are still used and someone can test portability to them, we should address the problem. However at this point I think it'd be OK to address the issue by falling back on the replacement alloca written in C, rather than rewriting fnmatch, makepath, etc. to include <alloca.h> first. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
