This is probably very low priority, maybe a release note?
In the dim-and-musty-systems department, using
Compaq C V6.1-120 on Digital UNIX V4.0G (Rev. 1530)
We get:
cc: Error:
/tmp/build-gcc-v4_1_1/src/gcc-4.1.1-20060517/libiberty/alloca.c, line
162: In this declaration, the type of "C_alloca" is not compatible with
the type of a previous declaration of "C_alloca" at line number 559 in
file
/tmp/build-gcc-v4_1_1/src/gcc-4.1.1-20060517/libiberty/../include/libiberty.h.
(notcompat)
C_alloca (size_t size)
^
gmake[1]: *** [alloca.o] Error 1
So it looks like include/libiberty.h should define it as a PTR also,
since ansidecl.h declares it differently if you're an old-school C
compiler...
