Description:   Opened: 2007-05-24 14:56 0000 
The file code/tools/asm/cmdlib.c contains two expressions that always evaluate
to true because it compares an array against true (which actually converts the
array into a pointer to the first element) which must not be zero. Because
-Werror is set and gcc-4.2 has stricter warnings the build fails.
I will attach a small patch to fix it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. switch to gcc-4.2
2. emerge quake3

I think it should be changed to do what was intended instead of removing it
entirely.

------- Comment #3 From Chris Gianelloni 2007-06-20 01:32:11 0000 ------- 
I completely agree.  Also, upstream is very responsive with regards to bugs
such as this, so any patches we apply will very likely be accepted upstream
easily.

i'd just say drop the -Werror from the build ... that only causes trouble

also, upstream has already accepted a bug fix from nyhm for this which ive
added
