Bugzilla Bug 78227

When I've tried to install apache-2.0.52-r2 with gawk 3.1.4 installed I am
receiving following error:

I've checked

and saw following

/*

 * This is an ugly hack that needs to be here, so
 * that libtool will link all of the APR functions

ending with

After installation of gawk 3.1.3-r2 is all ok. Seems to be buggy gawk 3.1.4


Expected Results:  
Correct build of Apache server

can someone rip this apart and produce a small test case ?

True, seems to be a gawk problem, same error for me and with other packages
like dev-libs/libgpg-error there are errors too.

I'm looking into the Apache side of things now..

gawk 1.3.4 seems quite fecked, which is making the stripping down harder.. I'll
carry on unless someone beats me to it ;)

Ahem, 3.1.4..

This bug(s) are fixed in Fedora (gawk-3.1.4-4), but I'm really out-dated with regard to RPM's..  could someone familiar with the tools extract these patches?  Otherwise lurning-curve coming up.. (wheeeee)

Created an attachment (id=49252) [details]
Add epatch to ebuild for forthcoming patch..

Created an attachment (id=49253) [details]
Patch to fix DFA cache buggery..

This patch resolves the issue.	It's taken from Fedora (I added a comment at
the top of the patch crediting them, I didn't however mention anything about
Red Hat sitting on patches for months, and months.. sigh..)

or we could try the LC_ALL=C hack in bug #78749. WFM.

Elfyn's patch fixes for me (against gawk-3.1.4), and I can subsequently build
apache without problems.

The question *why* redhat did *not* submit the fix to 
upstream may be because it does not really fix the 
problem, it just disabled the feature (as of looking 
into the patch source) - but shall be applied anyway...

please try gawk-3.1.4-r1

with gawk-3.1.4-r1, WFM.

thanks Elfyn, you saved my ass on that one :)

3.1.4-r1 seems to be fixing locale problems with other packages too
