Description Mike Wescott 2001-05-09 19:16:04 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-3 i686)

Description of problem:
gcc-2.96-81 on RH 7.0 and 7.1

if a line like
typedef char *ident;
precedes a #ident line the compiler errors out
with "invalid #-line"

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. cat - > xxx.c <<XXX
typedef char *ident;
#ident "xxx.c"
main() { exit(0);}
XXX

2. gcc -o xxx xxx.c

	

Actual Results:  gcc complains:
xxx.c:2: invalid #-line


Expected Results:  clean compile producing xxx

Additional info:

works on 6.2 with gcc from egcs-1.1.2-30
works on 7.1 with kgcc from compat-egcs-6.2-1.1.2.14

-fno-ident doesn't help

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2001-05-10 07:54:29 UTC
Will be fixed in gcc-2.96-86. The fix is easy:
