(In reply to comment #1) > Fixing the bfd configure script so that the system alloca.h is used instead > does not seem to me to be sufficient - the problem can still arise in other > build directories. Did not have this problem in other directories - actually, "alloca-conf.h" is used in bfd only. But agreed, this is not sufficient for platforms really lacking alloca.h > So please could you try out the patch below (which fixes > the header itself) and let me know if it works for you ? With this patch only (without checking for <alloca.h> in bfd/configure), the next unknown symbol is 'size_t': libtool: compile: cc -Wp,-H256000 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I/source/binutils-2.18/bfd -I. -DHOST_HPPAHPUX -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -DHPUX_CORE -I. -I/source/binutils-2.18/bfd -I/source/binutils-2.18/bfd/../include -g -c /source/binutils-2.18/bfd/som.c -o som.o cc: "/source/binutils-2.18/bfd/../include/alloca-conf.h", line 15: error 1506: Parameters allowed in function definition only. So in case <alloca.h> is missing, alloca-conf.h should include both ansidecl.h for PTR (as there is a complex #ifdef for __STDC__) as well as sys/types.h (if available) for size_t ? Eh, in gas/ChangeLog-9295 there is this log entry: "Replace alloca-conf.h inclusion with code recommended in autoconf documentation." Maybe this should be done for bfd too ?
