Hi In lib/lock.h, there is stub code to allow compilation event when no threading is supported, but it is missing the various destroy functions. Patch is attached following the existing conventions. I think, though, that at least some of the stubs ought to expand to "((void) 0)" rather than nothi

I've received a large set of build and test results from a user who wishes to remain anonymous. That set includes configure/make/make-check results for 163 system/compiler/env combinations. There's no way I can triage all of that before release. Maybe others who care about some of the affected p

Hi Paul, I'd like to use gnulib's verify.h in libvirt, but that project is currently constrained to be LGPLv2, so the license conflicts. Considering that verify.h is just these few lines in the C case, # define verify_true(R) \ (!!sizeof \ (struct { unsigned int verify_error_if
