--- Comment #4 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> 2012-02-09 12:19:38 UTC --- NetBSD PR http://gnats.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=45955 My analysis of the problem was incorrect and it looks as though a fix would be to put an *unescaped* \n at the end of each -e script: /* * Fix Command Arguments for Solaris_Complex_Cxx */ static const char* apzSolaris_Complex_CxxPatch[] = { sed_cmd_z, "-e", "/#if[ \t]*!defined(__cplusplus)/c\\\n\ #ifdef\t__cplusplus\\\n\ extern \"C\" {\\\n\ -#endif", +#endif\n", "-e", "/#endif[ \t]*\\/\\* !defined(__cplusplus) \\*\\//c\\\n\ #ifdef\t__cplusplus\\\n\ }\\\n\ -#endif", +#endif\n", (char*)NULL }; POSIX requires that a newline in the replacement text be escaped with \ so an unescaped newline is not part of the replacement text. GNU and Solaris both correctly ignore an unescaped newline at the end of the script, apparently netbsd does too (but I can't test that until later today)
