When compiling in a 64 bit userland, it appears the generated code in a .rl file for a pow function fails to build. It seems to not like a static initializer list? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: emerge harfbuzz Actual Results: The actual error is: FAILED: src/libharfbuzz.so.0.20704.0.p/hb-number.cc.o powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-g++

hb-number-parser.rl:88:44: error: ‘mask’ was not declared in this scope Expected Results: Compile and install The function it's complaining about is here: /* Works only for n < 512 */ static inline double _pow10 (unsigned exponent) { static const double _powers_of_10[] = { 1.0e+256, 1.0e+128, 1.0e+64, 1.0e+32, 1.0e+16, 1.0e+8, 10000., 100., 10. }; unsigned mask = 1 << (ARRAY_LENGTH (_powers_of_10) - 1); double result = 1; for (const double *power = _powers_of_10; mask; ++power, mask >>= 1) if (exponent & mask) result *= *power; return result; } So either something is messed up with the ARRAY_LENGTH macro, or it doesn't like the initializer before it. emerge --info output: Portage 3.0.7 (python 3.7.9-final-0, default/linux/powerpc/ppc64/17.0/64bit-userland/desktop,

On further investigation, I don't think being on PPC64 has anything to do with it, at least not directly. I'm using python 3.9, and python is what is used for the code generation. I'm going to try an earlier python to see if it makes a difference. If so, I'll alter the bug report to reflect it.
Python's 3.7-3.9 all seem to produce this issue. The byproduct of the code generation is: static inline double _pow10 (unsigned exponent) { static const double _powers_of_10[] = { 1.0e+256, 1.0e+128, 1.0e+64, 1.0e+32, 1.0e+16, 1.0e+8, 10000., 100., 10. }; unsigned mask << (ARRAY_LENGTH (_powers_of_10) - 1); double result; for (const double *power = _powers_of_10; mask; ++power, mask >>= 1) if (exponent & mask) result *= *power; return result; } Clearly the = 1 after mask is being dropped for some reason during the code generation.
ahhh, and the python is used to invoke ragel..., so it's pretty unlikely python has anything to do with the issue. Perhaps a regression in ragel + PPC64?
Using ragel 6.10 seems to fix the issue. I've reported the issue upstream: https://github.com/adrian-thurston/ragel/issues/61
Can you verify =dev-util/ragel-7.0.3 and =dev-util/colm-0.14.6 work?
Yes, it seems to be working correctly now.
