It is unclear (to me) what character set's value is meant to be returned by tolower(3). If, it's ASCII, I'd assume the Turkish lowercase-dotless-i should able to be represented and thus we ends up with the original argument being returned. - Arnaud > I guess we should reset the locale to C when generating > include/config/ files, it'd be better than re-inventing our special > case wheel. > > Thanks, > - Arnaud > >> 2011/8/16 Arnaud Lacombe <lacombar@xxxxxxxxx>: >>> Hi, >>> >>> [Added linux-kbuild@ to the CC list.] >>> >>> 2011/8/15 Serdar KÖYLÜ <s.koylux@xxxxxxxxx>: >>>> FYI. >>>> >>>> I download latest stable version and try compile it.
