Full build log

Same here. :(

me too .. ;(

the same

Add ~ppc to the list of architectures where it does not compile.

Wild guess, everyone who had trouble building this was using a non-default
locale.
That was affecting the awk script that generates the header file. The fix:

LANG=C emake pth_p.h

On my system this is not enough... may I suggest LC_ALL=C instead of LANG=C (or
possibly with LANG=C I'm no expert in Languages issues :)
with LC_ALL=C pth 2.0.3 compiles for me, otherwise it fails.
the default setting on my system for LC_ALL is it_IT.utf8

Fabio's fix works for me too, on amd64.
Here is the patch

Basesystem/vapier - FYI another locale gawk problem.

Reporters with problems which verions of gawk were you using?

Fabio, Simone - changed to LC_ALL=C LANG=C as you suggested.

On my system:
cova@kefk ~ $ gawk --version
GNU Awk 3.1.4

I'm using GNU Awk 3.1.4

awk 3.1.4 too.

actually, i dont think this is a gawk bug ... the pth package uses
non-locale-portable character matching:
[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]

[a-zA-Z] is known to be wrong ... it should use [:alpha:] since the order of
some alphabets is such that 'a' is not the first letter and 'z' is not the last
letter (see the estonian alphabet for a very good example of this)

well, maybe it is a gawk bug (see #78227) ... however, my previous statement
about gawk using [A-Z] still stands ... packages should never do that

can you guys try gawk-3.1.4-r1 and see if that works w/out screwing with LC_ALL
/ LANG ?

It works for me, thanks a lot.

removed - LC_ALL from pth ebuild
