Description Neal Becker 2011-06-16 14:53:58 UTC
Description of problem:

-C flag cannot be used with gcc because of header file
gthr-default.h

It contains:

static inline int
__gthread_active_p (void)
{
  static void *const __gthread_active_ptr
    = __extension__ (void *) &__gthrw_(
/* Android's C library does not provide pthread_cancel, check for
   `pthread_create' instead.  */

But __gthrw_ is a macro, so with -C flag, token pasting fails

---- hello.cc
#include <iostream>
-----

 /usr/bin/gcc  -C     -o stuff hello.cc

I had similar problem compiling marss using scons. The quick fix was to move the comment '/* Android .... */' in 'gthr-default.h:244' outside of '__gthrw_(..)' arguments like this:

static inline int
__gthread_active_p (void)
{
/* Android's C library does not provide pthread_cancel, check for `pthread_create' instead.  */
  static void *const __gthread_active_ptr
    = __extension__ (void *) &__gthrw_(
#ifndef __BIONIC__
                                       pthread_cancel
#else
                                       pthread_create
#endif
                                       );
  return __gthread_active_ptr != 0;
}

This fixed the problem. If you need, I can make a patch.

Thanks.  I know how to fix it myself - I want it fixed upstream.
