Package: gcc-4.3 Version: 4.3.2-1 Severity: important File: /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.3/include/stddef.h
When certain combinations of headers precede <stddef.h>, ptrdiff_t does not get defined. The particular sequence that triggered it for me was <wchar.h>, <wctype.h>, <stddef.h> but that might not be the only one. $ cat tmp1.c #include <wchar.h> #include <wctype.h> #include <stddef.h> ptrdiff_t x = 1; $ gcc -c tmp1.c tmp1.c:5: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'x' The problem doesn't happen if <wchar.h> and <wctype.h> are the other way round. $ cat tmp2.c #include <wctype.h> #include <wchar.h> #include <stddef.h> ptrdiff_t x = 1; $ gcc -c tmp2.c $ -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gcc-4.3 depends on: ii binutils 2.18.1~cvs20080103-7 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii cpp-4.3 4.3.2-1 The GNU C preprocessor ii gcc-4.3-base 4.3.2-1 The GNU Compiler Collection (base ii libc6 2.7-16 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.3.2-1 GCC support library ii libgomp1 4.3.2-1 GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library Versions of packages gcc-4.3 recommends: ii libc6-dev 2.7-16 GNU C Library: Development Librari Versions of packages gcc-4.3 suggests: pn gcc-4.3-doc <none> (no description available) pn gcc-4.3-locales <none> (no description available) pn gcc-4.3-multilib <none> (no description available) pn libgcc1-dbg <none> (no description available) pn libgomp1-dbg <none> (no description available) pn libmudflap0-4.3-dev <none> (no description available) pn libmudflap0-dbg <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
