Interesting how you say that after patches have been merged to support HP-UX, FreeBSD patches are coming in now and someone is working on AIX support as well. > There is for example the va_copy thing, but also now (in cvs) the > libintl.h dependency. this last has not been there for long. libintl.h disappearing seems to be a bug in the gettext package, that uses intl.h but ships with libgnuintl.h. So please file a bug there (severity serious at least I'ld say since dropping libintl.h will break things miserably). > The configure test for both is in place, but is not evaluated or the > absence is not resolved in any productiv way. the build just fails. Guess what, [EMAIL PROTECTED] submitted a patch for that while working on FreeBSD support. > Or is portability really not so improtant any more? You really should look a bit harder before making such statements.
