New issue 25 by vapier: cross-compiling vim fails due to uint32_t check
http://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=25
this bit of code in configure.in:
AC_MSG_CHECKING([uint32_t is 32 bits])
AC_TRY_RUN([...........],
AC_MSG_RESULT(ok),
AC_MSG_ERROR([WRONG! uint32_t not defined correctly.]),
AC_MSG_ERROR([could not compile program using uint32_t.]))
causes problems when cross-compiling in that it always fails. the fix is
to change that last AC_MSG_ERROR() into an AC_MSG_WARN(). if you read the
autoconf spec, you'll see that the last arg is for cross-compiling, not for
when the compile fails.
a simple patch by Maksim Melnikau has been posted here:
