thank you! That does seem to fix the issue (although it requires deleting config.cache :( ) I tried to upgrade gnulib instead of patching it and found another problem, introduced sometime between commits 38237baf99386101934cd93278023aa4ae523ec0 and b7bf9f4361c8d78ccfda7a30ff31f7a406ea972e (hence my subject change). Specifically, this testcase: #define GNULIB_NAMESPACE gnulib #include "gnulib/config.h" #include "wctype.h" x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ -c test.cc -I build/gnulib/import/ -I binutils-gdb/gnulib/import/ Fails with errors like: gnulib/import/wctype.h: In member function ‘gnulib::_gl_iswalnum_wrapper::operator gnulib::_gl_iswalnum_wrapper::type() const’: gnulib/import/wctype.h:856:1: error: invalid conversion from ‘int (*)(wint_t)’ {aka ‘int (*)(short unsigned int)’} to ‘gnulib::_gl_iswalnum_wrapper::type’ {aka ‘int (*)(unsigned int)’} [-fpermissive] _GL_CXXALIAS_SYS (iswalnum, int, (wint_t wc)); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (and followed by many other is* functions) This only fails with GNULIB_NAMESPACE defined (this is, I think, the only file in gdb that does define it) Any thoughts on this one? Let me know if you need any more data (config.log, etc.) Christian
