This would be a compiler (GCC) problem then, right? I'm not aware of any such problem. FWIW Debian is using GCC 4.3 in lenny/sid I've checked the bugs reported against the Debian gcc package [1] and the Debian specific patches on top of gcc [2], but I didn't find anything obvious. Rainer, if you have a more specific question, I could forward that question to the Debian GCC maintainers. Cheers, Michael [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=gcc-4.3&repeatmerged=no [2] http://patch-tracking.debian.net/package/gcc-4.3/4.3.2-1.1 -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth? _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com
