Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22
Severity: normal
Tags: sid, upstream
The following definitions cause errors when compiled with gcc-4.0:
obstack_ptr_grow
obstack_int_grow
obstack_ptr_grow_fast
obstack_int_grow_fast
The problem is that they each contain a statement of the form
*((foo *) bar->next_free)++ = baz;
which is not legal C code, because the ++ operator uses the preceding
cast expression as an lvalue, but cast expressions _aren't_ lvalues.
One way of dealing with this is to rewrite each instance as
*((foo *) bar->next_free) = baz;
bar->next_free += (sizeof (foo));
which works because the next_free field is a "char *".
