Hi Tim! What happens if you add -D_GNU_SOURCE to the compile? That is, in fact , the intent of the guards, and the internalization of GNU glob, etc. and so should be added to your CFLAGS. That does indeed work, and doesn't appear to cause problems elsewhere (I haven't gotten through the entire source yet because of another problem I'll be reporting in a bit with db3 header finding). Adding -D_GNU_SOURCE is a little unintuitive to me, but it's a reasonable workaround for the problem. I'll continue to test 4.0.2 and try testing on HP-UX and IRIX too. I may submit a patch for the README, so that others don't stumble in the same place I did. |
