GNU make 3.80 build failure on FreeBSD 5
GNU make 3.80 fails to build on FreeBSD 5: In file included from glob.c:282: glob.h:51: redefinition of `__size_t' /usr/include/machine/_types.h:86: `__size_t' previously declared here This can be fixed by the patch below which Mike Barcroft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> contributed to the FreeBSD ports collection. I would appreciate could you roll a new release of GNU make with this (or a similar) fix rather sooner than later; thanks.

I don't think there's any way that a GNU make release can be done for at least another month or so: the CVS code is sort of in the middle of things. It would be good, when you find things like this, if you could file a bug on the Savannah site (I get bugs from Debian, etc. that way too). Question: is this change portable to previous versions of FreeBSD as well? You test just __FreeBSD__, which I assume is defined for 4.x, etc. versions as well, so I want to make sure that this section won't cause breakage on older versions. Thanks! -- --- Paul D.

I will do that next time, thanks for the hint! > Question: is this change portable to previous versions of FreeBSD as > well?

The patch is part of the FreeBSD ports tree, which means it is regularily tested both on the latest version as well as 4.x; to be sure I just built GNU make 3.80 plus this patch on FreeBSD 4.7 and everything worked fine.
