Here's the output of Configure.pl --verbose on a SPARC where the required alignment is 4. The test correctly deduces that alignments of 64, 32, 16, 8, and 4 all work, but apparently throws that information away when the 2 and 1 byte alignment tests fail. Determining your minimum pointer alignment... gcc [ options omitted ] -I./include -c test.c test.c:14: warning: no previous prototype for 'bletch' test.c: In function 'main': gcc test.o -o test -lsocket -lnsl -ldl -lm -lpthread -lrt ./test 64 64 OK ./test 32 32 OK ./test 16 16 OK ./test 8 8 OK ./test 4 4 OK ./test 2 ./test 1 step auto::alignptrs died during execution: Can't determine alignment! at Configure.pl line 349 -- Andy Dougherty [EMAIL PROTECTED]
