Logged In: YES user_id=79902 Originator: NO Fixed the obvious fault in compat/memcmp.c; I won't try to think about the bugs relating to why that file exists or is used. jenglish added on 2007-09-06 08:56:38: Logged In: YES user_id=68433 Originator: NO From comments in #1631017: | The real bug is that compat/memcmp.c is being used in the first place - | if the build system is trying to use this file at all, it indicates that | the configure script has failed to detect a working C compiler. Other reports indicate that this happens when trying to cross-compile. One proposed solution is to use AC_TRY_LINK instead of AC_TRY_RUN. (sorry, reference not handy, I just vaguely remember reading this somewhere). msofer added on 2007-09-03 23:11:58: Logged In: YES user_id=148712 Originator: NO This is a duplicate of bug #1631017, which is reported as fixed in both HEAD and 8.4. The files on HEAD and core-8-4-branch differ: is there a reason for that? Assigning to dkf as he reported this fixed.

Can you just look at the code i think it is trivial.

What platform are you on? msofer added on 2007-09-02 21:42:49: data_type - 110894 mladenk added on 2007-09-02 21:19:51: File Added - 243911: memcmp-tcl.patch | |||
