[Gcl-devel] Gcc 3.4 and GCL

[Mike Thomas]

Hi there.

MinGW32 gcc 3.4 was released yesterday so I ran a quick check with GCL which
fails on gmp3 due to type errors like this one:

============================================================================
========
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -D__GMP_WITHIN_GMP -I.. -g -O2 -fomit-frame
-poi
nter -mcpu=i486 -march=i386 -c cfdiv_q_2exp.c
`-mcpu=' is deprecated. Use `-mtune=' or '-march=' instead.
cfdiv_q_2exp.c:34: error: conflicting types for '__gmpz_cfdiv_q_2exp'
cfdiv_q_2exp.c:29: error: previous declaration of '__gmpz_cfdiv_q_2exp' was
here

cfdiv_q_2exp.c:34: error: conflicting types for '__gmpz_cfdiv_q_2exp'
cfdiv_q_2exp.c:29: error: previous declaration of '__gmpz_cfdiv_q_2exp' was
here
============================================================================
========

Also Camm, in relation to our test with "-fvolatile" I see this comment in
the gcc 3.4 release notes at http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.4/changes.html :

"GCC no longer accepts the options -fvolatile, -fvolatile-global
and -fvolatile-static. It is unlikely that they worked correctly in any 3.x
release."

Cheers
