glib 1.2.10 w/gcc 3.4

[x_empt@…]

GCC 3.4 compiling glib 1.2.10 requires the following change.

+ GCC 3.4 and higher treats FUNCTION and similar special compiler + symbols as variables instead of macros. This means they no longer can + be concatenated directly with string literals. Unfortunately, GLIB uses + them in this way, so we have to disable this use with GCC 3.4 or higher. + + Index: glib.h + --- glib.h.orig 2001-02-27 04:44:38.000000000 +0100 + +++ glib.h 2004-04-28 10:24:56.000000000 +0200 + @@ -272,7 +272,7 @@ + /* Wrap the gcc PRETTY_FUNCTION and FUNCTION variables with + * macros, so we can refer to them as strings unconditionally. + */ + -#ifdef GNUC + +#if defined(GNUC) && (GNUC == 3 && GNUC_MINOR < 4) + #define G_GNUC_FUNCTION FUNCTION + #define G_GNUC_PRETTY_FUNCTION PRETTY_FUNCTION + #else /* __GNUC */

Not mentioned in BLFS book. There will be no further updates to glib 1.2, so this probably needs to be listed as a patch in the book at: ​http://lfs.oregonstate.edu/blfs/view/cvs/general/glib.html
