problem building XFree86 (pre-3.3.6) on a recent Freebsd 4.0-current

2000-01-05 Thread David Dawes 

I've just been doing a build test of the pre-3.3.6 version of
XFree86 on a recent FreeBSD 4.0-current, and I've noticed that
/usr/libexec/cpp doesn't predefine the symbol __FreeBSD__.  imake
uses /usr/libexec/cpp.  Is it intentional that /usr/libexec/cpp
not predefine any symbols like this?  I've changed imake to use
/usr/bin/cpp instead, and it seems to work on 3.4 and 4.0.  Should
this be OK on all FreeBSD versions?

  Correct.  The change is due to philosophical changes by the GCC
  development team.  GCC 2.95.2's cpp built from cccp.c is now a pure
  preprocessor and knows much less about the world than it previously did.
  In 2.95.2 there is now an additional cpp that is build using gcc.c and is
  a driver for the cccp.c cpp.

I dare you to try saying that again with a mouth full of peanuts!
