I noticed this patch go into launchpad against coreutils, but it affects gnulib, so here we go.
This is a strong argument for enabling -Werror when compiling tests. Even on Fedora 13, these warnings have been flying by: test-link.h:47:5: warning: implicit declaration of function 'stat' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] test-link.h:98:3: warning: implicit declaration of function 'mkdir' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] test-linkat.c:65:3: warning: implicit declaration of function 'lstat' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] but I had not noticed them. >From 0ffbddbdbe959fd8ea3cc18cb4d1c89686e6b2bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering <meyer...@redhat.com> Date: Fri, 11 Jun 2010 08:50:08 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] test-linkat: avoid failed assertion on "other" architectures * tests/test-linkat.c: Include <sys/stat.h>, for lstat declaration.
