Bug 22185 – GCC-3.3 festival dies while compiling with tons "lacks a cast" errors

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Ahmed Farid 2003-06-04 02:18:42 UTC]

the summery says it all
i'm using a bootstrapped system with gcc-3.3 and kernel 2.5.70-mm3..
i can't copy/paste the error right now sorry but it's pretty much reproducable
with gcc-3.3 everytime
ps : i thought it was my cflags so i tried to do : CFLAGS="" emerge speechd but
still the same

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge speechd OR emerge festival
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
building dies with alot of type cast, "lacks a cast" errors.

Expected Results:  
compiled fine?

can't copy paste anything but here's my config :
System : P4 2.2 386mb RAM, kernel 2.5.70-mm3, gcc-3.3, glibc2.3.2
CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O2 -ftracer -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer
-fforce-addr -falign-functions=4 -fprefetch-loop-arrays"

Festival 1.4.2 is completely non-ansi C++, there isn't any way to get GCC-3.3 to compile 
it. Festival 1.4.3 compiles fine, however. 

[Comment 3 Joshua Kinard 2003-10-01 23:07:27 UTC]

Resolving as FIXED as per Comment #2, festival-1.4.3 should compile with
gcc-3.3.x.  festival-1.4.3 even applies a gcc-3.3 patch, so this likely fixes
it.
