Did you actually encounter a compilation failure where restrict was
improperly defined while using gnulib? If so, how do we reproduce it?
It was not on my system, but on a BSD box that Nelson Beebe was kindly
building GNU Zile on for me. A bit of the build log goes:
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I../lib -I../lib
-DPATH_DATA="\"/usr/local/share/zile\"" -g -O2 -Wall -W
-Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -pedantic -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
-std=c89 -MT lists.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/lists.Tpo -c -o lists.o lists.c
In file included from /usr/include/strings.h:68,
from /usr/include/string.h:89,
from ../lib/string.h:27,
from lists.c:23:
../lib/string.h:104: error: parse error before "__dest"
Earlier, configure said:
checking for C/C++ restrict keyword... __restrict
The version of gcc in use is 3.4.3.
If that's not useful information, please tell me precisely what you need,
and I should be able to get it from Nelson...
