Hi,
xulrunner is failing to build on alpha, and with both escher and goedel
being locked down, I have no access to an alpha machine to at least
understand the issue.
The error itself is

PyGBase.cpp: In member function 'nsresult

PyGBase.cpp:613: error: no matching function for call to

PyGBase.cpp:563: note: candidates are: nsresult
PyG_Base::InvokeNativeViaPolicyInternal(const char*, PyObject**, const char*,
va_list)
make[5]: *** [PyGBase.o] Error 1
The code at PyGBase.cpp:613 reads:
ret = InvokeNativeViaPolicyInternal(buf, ppResult, nsnull, nsnull);
which seems to indicate that the compiler is considering nsnull as an int.
nsnull is defined in xpcom/base/nscore.h as:
#define nsnull 0
It'd look like a int vs. pointer size difference, but in such a case,
I'd assume it would also fail to build on ia64, amd64... which is not
the case. Moreover, NULL is defined as 0 as well in system headers, so
it shouldn't be a problem.
Maybe it's the va_args implementation on alpha that somehow differs ?
I'd have liked to try to reproduce the problem with a simple testcase
but without access to an alpha machine... and I don't really want to
waste buildd time with successive uploads until i somehow find a fix.
So, if someone could either take a look at the issue or give me an
access to an alpha machine, that would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mike
