It's hard to tell without trying: even if is (or maybe was) needed for one codebase doesn't mean it's required for a different one. I found that it was introduced in binutils 2.19 for PR binutils/6526. At the time (2008), it was required for Interix 3.5 support which is long obsolete. That said, I can try removing it completely on Solaris, Linux, and FreeBSD. If that' acceptable in general is hard to say in advance (but likely). > If adding the additional check in libsframe/configure.ac around __EXTENSIONS__ > works, may be thats preferable ? It's certainly the safer route (could perhaps even be applied to the 2.45 branch if necessary), but also uglier if the condition isn't needed after all. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
