------- Comment #21 from eggert at gnu dot org 2006-05-05 06:54 ------- Created an attachment (id=11381) --> (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=11381&action=view) port GCC to 'sort' and 'tail' that use POSIX syntax
This patch (originally reported in Bug 27434) ports the GCC build procedure to hosts (like mine) whose 'sort' and 'tail' implementations treat operands with leading '+' as file names, as POSIX has required since 2001. The patch doesn't affect the build procedure on traditional hosts that don't support POSIX syntax. This follows up on the recent gcc-patches discussion on this topic. In <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2006-05/msg00179.html>, Mike Stump writes that he's fine with the change. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14251
