Hello, The latest git version ( 1.6.48-ef80 with all the mentioned fixes ) compiles and tests OK on OpenSolaris 5.11 and AIX-7, when built from a tarball , Also no test failures on Mac OS X 10.9.5, 10.10.5, 10.11.3 (when building from tarball).
However, when building from git (with './bootstrap' and eventually "-Werror"), the following occur on Mac OS X 10.10.4 (and perhaps others, didn't check): === CC error.o error.c:386:12: error: data argument not used by format string [-Werror,-Wformat-extra-args] file_name, line_number); ^ === CC memrchr.o memrchr.c:71:18: error: cast from 'const unsigned char *' to 'const longword *' (aka 'const unsigned long *') increases required alignment from 1 to 8 [-Werror,-Wcast-align] longword_ptr = (const longword *) char_ptr; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ === CC gzip.o gzip.c:1770:20: error: adding 'int' to a string does not append to the string [-Werror,-Wstring-plus-int] + 4 * tm->tm_mon), ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ gzip.c:1770:20: note: use array indexing to silence this warning + 4 * tm->tm_mon), ^ ==== The compiler is: === Apple LLVM version 6.1.0 (clang-602.0.53) (based on LLVM 3.6.0svn) Target: x86_64-apple-darwin14.4.0 Thread model: posix === regards, - assaf
