[gnugo-devel] Tru64: compilation errors for current CVS

[Teun Burgers]

Current CVS (12-09-2004) gives errors such as these on .c files
generated by mkpat:

cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../engine -I../utils -I../sgf 
-I/home/snuf3/aburgers/alpha/include -I/net/shareware/include  -g 
-check_bounds -c `test -f read_attack.c || echo './'`read_attack.c
cc: Error: read_attack.c, line 136: The static declaration of 
"read_attack" is a tentative definition and specifies an incomplete 
type. (incompstat)
static struct pattern read_attack[];
----------------------^
make: *** [read_attack.o] Error 1

For most patterns files this declaration can simply be left out, but
not for read_attack.c, because the patterns in read_attack.c refer
to read_attack before it is actually defined.

Previously this used to give only warings on Tru64. See this message:
