in some cases, its not so much that they use a feature of gcc,but that they rely on default behaviour of it. That being said... I vaguely recall that, back in the day, there are warning flags in gcc you can turn on, that make it (almost) as cautious about these things as sun studio. So, an even better thing for you to look into, would be to see if you can find the g++ flag that triggers a warning on the original code, then suggest to upstream, "please compile with these flags from now on". _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
