But Michael's problem was actually that SNPRINTF_RETURNS_BOGUS was set incorrectly; his system has a working snprintf (or so I assume). The reason for the failure is that ./configure's test program produced a warning, and that warning was turned into an error due to -Werror. Without -Werror, the test program would have compiled successfully, and the working snprintf would have been detected. -- Hannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
