Hmm. It looks to me like the compiler is getting confused by the
interaction between nodeno, leftnodeno, and rightnodeno. Try this
patch to see if it gets around it. (This is a tad better anyway
since it avoids examining the right child if not needed.)
Brillant!
You made my day, can't wait for this patch to be committed.
I find it pretty scary to work around compiler bugs like this. Who knows what
other code it miscompiles. Can you reduce fsm_search_avail into a small
stand-alone test program, and file a bug report with the compiler vendor?
FWIW, the compiler doesn't miscompîle anything on postgresql, as an heavy
user/hoster, I'd know!
Let's not start a flame here, SCO compiler is as good or as bad as
anyother..
Never saw a problem with gcc, hp-ux, darwin or M$?
BTW, why does this work on warthog buildfarm member? Different compiler
version?
it's configured with --enable-debug.
Maybe run_build.pl should run twice, onece with --enable-debug once
without.
