Package: perl Version: 5.10.1-17squeeze3 Severity: minor When sys/cdefs.ph is pulled in through a require (e.g., sys/ioctl.ph) an abmiguous use of operator warning is produced:
Trivial reproduction: $ perl -w -e "require 'sys/cdefs.ph';" Operator or semicolon missing before &__inline at (eval 103) line 1. Ambiguous use of & resolved as operator & at (eval 103) line 1. The following patch removes the specific warning seen, however, there are likely other areas in this file that need similar treatment. --- cdefs.ph.orig 2012-09-27 16:53:25.079999806 +0000 +++ cdefs.ph 2012-09-27 16:59:57.100001743 +0000 @@ -261,7 +261,7 @@ eval 'sub __extern_always_inline () { &extern &__always_inline &__attribute__ (( &__gnu_inline__));}' unless defined(&__extern_always_inline); } } else { - eval 'sub __extern_inline () { &extern &__inline;}' unless defined(&__extern_inline); + eval 'sub __extern_inline () { &extern (&__inline);}' unless defined(&__extern_inline); if( &__GNUC_PREREQ (4,3)) { eval 'sub __extern_always_inline () { &extern &__always_inline &__attribute__ (( &__artificial__));}' unless defined(&__extern_always_inline); } else { -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/3 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages perl depends on: ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.5-6+squeeze1 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.11.3-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdb4.7 4.7.25-9 Berkeley v4.7 Database Libraries [ ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-9 GNU dbm database routines (runtime ii perl-base 5.10.1-17squeeze3 minimal Perl system ii perl-modules 5.10.1-17squeeze3 Core Perl modules ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages perl recommends: ii netbase 4.45 Basic TCP/IP networking system Versions of packages perl suggests: pn libterm-readline-gnu-perl | l <none> (no description available) ii make 3.81-8 An utility for Directing compilati pn perl-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
