I am building octave-forge on FreeBSD. There are some build problems,
which I would like to start to articulate, one or two problems per email.
FreeBSD uses the very latest version of gcc-4.3.x for any program
requiring fortran. It seems that this gcc is getting fussier and
fussier, and so picks up many more errors. Also, I am building using
the cutting edge FreeBSD-CURRENT, which creates even more problems, but
problems which will eventually catch up to mainstream users.
I am the maintainer of the FreeBSD-port of octave-forge.
A lot of the problems will arise because FreeBSD defaults to
octave-3.0.5. Octave-3.1.55 is available, but I can see users not
wanting to use it.
Problem 1. Building octave-forge-engine. This has its own getline
function, which seems to conflict with a built in definition of getline.
I suggest renaming the function getline. The enclosed patch renames
it to local_getline, but you could call it something else.
