Just fyi.. It was originally a gnu extension ( as reported in my archlinux manpage) but its defined as posix now. Netbsd, openbsd and freebsd have this (only recent versions).
The place for this should be glib. But looks like glibc have some sse optimizations for this function.. And that would make run vala programs slower on linux86.. (theorically... I would be happy to see some benchmarks) On 15/03/2011, at 22:51, pancake <[email protected]> wrote: > I just reported this in the irc few hours ago. The commit was in 10th of > february.
