Atleast the 4.1.2 I have in. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 141084 [details, diff] libmowgli-0.5.0-cpp-fixed.patch Calls cpp one time per file
0.6.1 does not have this issue it seems like. Are there any reasons for 0.6.1 being marked ~x86 then?
Yes, 0.6.1 is <30 days old. Once it reaches that age, it will be considered for stable keywords.
I now found the real reason for this bug In make.conf I had CPP=${CHOST}-cpp replacing it with CPP="${CHOST}-gcc -E" however solves the issue. So, what do the build-dudes say about this then? Should CPP point to cpp, or gcc -E ?
Their opinion can likely be summarized as "don't mess with that setting". As you are the only reporter of this bug, I'll have a hard time convincing anyone it's worth an early stable of 0.6.1 For now I'm closing the bug as invalid. Let me know if you disagree.
