Description Garen 2003-05-13 13:53:56 UTC
This is a backport of a trivial fix thats in 2.3.2 but not in 2.3.1 in the file byteswap.h.  
Basically, a few internal glibc functions __bswap_32 and __bswap_16 don't get 
defined for non-GCC compilers, and so some compiles fail (QT) with them. 
 
If there is another 2.3.1 based release it would be nice to get this in, but it's 
non-critical.

Comment 3 Joshua Kinard gentoo-dev 2003-10-29 15:45:52 UTC
glibc-2.3.2-r1 is stable on most archs by now (maybe not arm), so this issue
should be moot by now.  Resolving as FIXED.
