OK, the reason of my asking was configure script in a 3rd party application (namely apr-1.3.6) that generated strange warning about sys/syslimits.h being good enoung for gcc but not for gcc -E. it seems, they have a bug in checking for the presence of limits.h and sys/syslimits.h and include them in a non-uniform manner later. going to send them a patch Alex _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
