looking through the gnulib source code, i dont see any checks/replacements for when MB_CUR_MAX does not exist (like in a uClibc build where all multibyte related stuff has been disabled). for example, zile falls apart like so: ../../zile-2.3.7/lib/mbrtowc.c: In function ‘rpl_mbrtowc’: ../../zile-2.3.7/lib/mbrtowc.c:96: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘mbtowc’ ../../zile-2.3.7/lib/mbrtowc.c:124: error: ‘MB_CUR_MAX’ undeclared (first use in this function) ../../zile-2.3.7/lib/mbrtowc.c:124: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ../../zile-2.3.7/lib/mbrtowc.c:124: error: for each function it appears in.) make[6]: *** [mbrtowc.o] Error 1
shouldnt the multibyte replacements in gnulib be testing for MB_CUR_MAX and provide a replacement when it doesnt exist ? after all, gnulib is providing the multibyte functions itself, so it should know full well the value of MB_CUR_MAX ... -mike
