ailbox.o Mailbox.c
Mailbox.c: In function `GetMailFile':
Mailbox.c:563: error: `stderr' undeclared (first use in this function)
Mailbox.c:563: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
Mailbox.c:563: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[3]: *** [Mailbox.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r4/work/xc/programs/
xbiff'

Edit Mailbox.c to add the include line:

#include <stdio.h>

Re-compile and it works. (failed on xdm but that's another story)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run an emerge of x11 that fails (did on my server)
2. Change to /var/tmp/... to run the make yourself
3. Watch it run through then fail on stderr undefined in mailbox.c for xbiff

Actual Results:  
Mailbox.c: In function `GetMailFile':
Mailbox.c:563: error: `stderr' undeclared (first use in this function)
Mailbox.c:563: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
Mailbox.c:563: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[3]: *** [Mailbox.o] Error 1


Expected Results:  
The compile should have worked and not errored out.

Comment 6 Joshua Baergen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-20 15:17:25 UTC
Why are you using a default profile with a hardened USE-flag/kernel?  Take a
look at
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/selinux/selinux-amd64-handbook.xml?part=0&chap=0

Also, http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/hardenedxorg.xml

I don't see these problems on my non-hardened/x86.
Comment 7 Corin Goodier 2005-09-20 23:56:51 UTC
I'm using a default like that because I haven't tuned it yet.

I just got this to compile by applying the 3 changes to Xorg while the emerge 
was running. So whether it happened on your system or not, the problems exist in 
the c files.
Comment 8 Joshua Baergen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-21 08:48:33 UTC
I'm not saying the compile didn't fail (it didn't), but in the case of one or
two of those files the suggested problems don't exist.  The stdio include is
actually in the .c file that you say it's missing from.

As far as I know you can't mixed hardened stuff with a non-hardened profile, and
this could potentially cause wacky stuff to happen.
