Hi Matze.
Thanks for the report and a fix!
I have tested it and committed the changes. Please test.
Looking at when the ebuild was committed I can only suspect that this breakage has something to do with gcc-3. Fortunately your fix does not have any bad side-effects on gcc-2.95.x based system.
I also cleaned up[ the ebuild - "sather" was used in a lot of places, I changed it to ${PN} and used ${MY_P} where appropriate + some more stuff.
I removed definition of LOCALE from generated env file - its not good to force some weird LOCALE on unsuspecting users :/.
Also, since this is a compile-time fix, no revision bump is necessary.
TODO item:
Everything (well almost) gets installed under /usr/sather, which is not quite FHS compliant. Not sure if it would be easy to move stuff under uppropriate places but at least symlinks can be placed into /usr/bin and may be somewhere else.
Still getting in the fix is top priority, so I committed the changes you made right away. May I be will get to sorting installation out at some point, so leaving this bug open for a while. BTW, do you have any idea how anybody else (most likely that would be Debian) installs this package?
George

the sather1.3 ebuild fails to compile on my system. I had todo some small changes which are attached to this bugreport. System: gentoo linux on x86 pentium4 cpu gcc 3.2.2 Problems: * variables of the form volatile unsigned int bla; need to be defined extern volatile unsigned int bla; in headers (the volatile was missing) * the garbage collection library -lgc contains references to -ldl so we need to link this lib as well.
