I don't have time to work on a fix for a compiler bug at this moment.
If you can find a way around it, I'll include it--otherwise we'll
just have to make the comment that gcc 3.1 or better will take a long
time to compile this file.
David
On my FreeBSD PC, I have installed the required autotools for the
libtool branch:
libtool 1.4.3
autoconf / autoheader 2.57
automake/ aclocal 1.5
This is what I get:
$ ./CVSMake
configure.ac:963: warning: AC_PROG_LEX invoked multiple times
configure.ac: 9: `automake requires `AM_CONFIG_HEADER', not `AC_CONFIG_HEADER'
automake: configure.ac: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' must be used
$ ./configure --prefix=/opt --with-extra-prefix=/opt
--x-includes=/usr/local/include --x-libraries=/usr/local/lib
$ gmake
[...]
sh ../../../libtool --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.
-I../../../include -I../../../include -Dfreebsd
-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/freetype2
-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/X11
-I/usr/local/include/libxml2 -I/usr/local/include
-I/usr/X11R6/include -O -pipe -Wall -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include
-I/usr/X11R6/include -D_GNU_SOURCE -c -o zclipQ.lo `test -f zclipQ.c
|| echo './'`zclipQ.c
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../../include -I../../../include
-Dfreebsd -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/freetype2
-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/X11
-I/usr/local/include/libxml2 -I/usr/local/include
-I/usr/X11R6/include -O -pipe -Wall -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include
-I/usr/X11R6/include -D_GNU_SOURCE -c zclipQ.c -o zclipQ.o
Here, zclipQ.c compiles for ever. This is not related to the
autotools, but is a known compiler bug; however it
will hassle all FreeBSD users running the latest stable OS release,
which keeps using Gcc 2.95.4 for as long as
the 4.x branch is the main release (5.x uses Gcc 3.1.2, but is due
for stable release sometime next year or
even later). David, is there a fix?
Regards,
Rob.
