[Comment 1 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) 2004-05-22 11:45:16 UTC]

could you drop down your CFLAGS and try again ?

[Comment 2 Peter Gantner (a.k.a. nephros) 2004-05-24 08:59:29 UTC]

Did that, but it doesn't help.
Same error, even with CFLAGS="-O0", sorry.

[Comment 3 Tavis Ormandy (RETIRED) 2004-05-24 10:19:05 UTC]

I've never seen this error before...

please confirm you're not doing anything weird, like using a non standard /bin/sh perhaps? I'll look thought the build scripts (unfortunately they are not very readable, david korn doesnt mess about :) and see if I can work out what is going wrong.

[Comment 4 Peter Gantner (a.k.a. nephros) 2004-05-24 10:30:58 UTC]

Definitely not any more weird than your average Gentooista.
/bin/sh is standard bash-2.05b-r9, I'm using a NPTL-compiled glibc on a SMP x86 system and the above on-the-brink-of-insanity CFLAGS.
Everything else behaves normally.

Just for kicks I tried a 
CFLAGS="" FEATURES="" ebuild ksh-93.20040229.ebuild clean compile
to rule out ccache or distcc involvement, same error.
Feel free to request more info.

bump & request to close.

Problem disappeared for unknown reasons.
Compile worls now until it catches bug #50000 =:-/

[Comment 6 Jason White 2005-03-27 00:15:00 UTC]

The version of ksh93 in Gentoo is very out of date.
The latest version is released under the Common Public License (CPL) and
I was able to compile it from source on my Gentoo (AMD64) system.
Perhaps the developers could update the Gentoo package and determine whether this bug remains thereafter.

[Comment 7 Tavis Ormandy (RETIRED) 2005-03-27 01:37:37 UTC]

Jason: it's only one version behind, which was only released last month...

anyway, i'll bump it.

closing as requested in c#5
