FYI, I also tried to see if I could drop the gcc-3.4 dependency. However, grub built with gcc-4.1 segfaults at various places due to the sporty use of pointer arithmetic in several functions with variable arguments, maybe because the optimization makes for some surprises. I inserted proper va_arg handling instead and that worked fine AFAICS. However, there might be many other places things can go wrong in the same fashion, so I think it's safer to stay with gcc-3.4. I attach the patch here anyway if anyone is interested.
I think it's time to switch to grub2... ** Attachment added: "ubuntu-gcc-va_arg.diff" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8178550/ubuntu-gcc-va_arg.diff -- please merge grub 0.97-28 from Debian unstable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119675 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
