There are some link errors in the tests on Solaris, one of which is
the new 22.locale.synopsis test which, I was under the impression was
not to be included in this patch release (along with the other
migrated tests). Since it is a new test, its not so critical I
think. I'll file an issue for this.
There are also runtime link errors on Darwin 8 and 9 (i.e. Tiger and
Leopard) due to incompatible library versions. Example:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tests]$ pwd
/private/tmp/stdcxx/build/tests
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tests]$ otool -LD ./run
./run:
/tmp/stdcxx/build/lib/libstd.dylib (compatibility
version 4.0.0, current version 4.2.1)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version
1.0.0, current version 88.3.10)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tests]$ otool -LD /tmp/stdcxx/build/lib/libstd.dylib
/tmp/stdcxx/build/lib/libstd.dylib:
/tmp/stdcxx/build/lib/libstd.dylib (compatibility
version 4.0.0, current version 4.2.1)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version
1.0.0, current version 88.3.10)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tests]$ ./run
dyld: Library not loaded: /tmp/stdcxx/build/lib/libstd.dylib
Referenced from: /private/tmp/stdcxx/build/tests/./run
Reason: Incompatible library version: run requires version
4.0.0 or later, but libstd.dylib provides version 0.0.0
Trace/BPT trap
No clue where version 0.0.0 is coming from. I'll file an issue for
this as well.
Finally, not many open source distributions do this but I find it
really useful when the permissions of all files in the distribution
are set to read-only when unpacked. This is just polish though.
As for the vote: +1.
Brad.
