> - bool traced : 1; > + unsigned int traced : 1; Thanks for the report. However, I would tend to think that this is a bug in the gnulib stdbool module. Is ./configure detecting that the AIX bool is sufficient, or is it using the gnulib replacement? If it is getting the AIX bool, then the gnulib check should be enhanced to check that bool can be used for bitfields. If it is getting the gnulib bool, then we should figure out how to make the gnulib bool pick a type that will work for this usage pattern. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
