Bram: I submitted the patch to redhat also. Maybe its best to have distros keep a seperate patch outside of the prestine source in the situation you describe. The error is caused by a bad system setup. I was just trying to reduce 560 lines of meaningless gcc warnings and errors to 1 coherent error. If some preprocessors cant handle it I can see your point. On linux #error makes more sense. Packages are an easy way to deal with this issue.

[I guess I should mention this all started with configure failing to write the test file for sizeof(int) on a near full fs.] --- Bram Moolenaar <Bram@moolenaar.net> wrote: > > > I submitted the patch to redhat also.

I don't think this needs to be fixed - sizeof(int) is not 0 on Linux, so first of all you aren't getting to this place unless something's very wrong. Also, both versions will generate an error, and point you to the same place.
