Bug: I could not get gmalloc.c to compile with gcc-2.6.0 on a
sun-sparc-solaris2.3 machine, X11R6.
Error:
gcc -c -Demacs -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I/vol/inetsw/src/editors/emacs-19.26/src -traditional -I/vol/X11R6/include -g -O gmalloc.c
gmalloc.c:1250: parse error before `ptrdiff_t'
make[1]: *** [gmalloc.o] Error 1
Solution:
Change the "ptrdiff_t" variable definition to "int". This
solves everything, but is probably one massively ugly solution. I'm
not sure why this was missed in the first place, since that seemed to
be the only problem? Everything else worked. I'm NOT supplying a
patch, since this is *UGLY*.
Setup:
configure --prefix=/vol/inetsw --with-x11 --with-x-toolkit
generated:
Configured for `sparc-sun-solaris2.3'.
Where should the build process find the source code? /vol/inetsw/src/editors/emacs-19.26
What operating system and machine description files should Emacs use?
`s/sol2-3.h' and `m/sparc.h'
What compiler should emacs be built with? gcc -g -O
Should Emacs use the GNU version of malloc? yes
Should Emacs use the relocating allocator for buffers? yes
What window system should Emacs use? x11
What toolkit should Emacs use? LUCID
Where do we find X Windows header files? /vol/X11R6/include
Where do we find X Windows libraries? /vol/X11R6/lib
