------- Comment #4 from dbb at hadenmead dot com 2006-01-28 21:30 -------
Sorry, I must ask you to help me here.
The function [macro] isinf() is not declared [or defined] in any of the
Solaris9 include files (the nearest it comes is in /usr/include/ieefp.h, which
defines the function finite(), usually one of the same family as isinf()). Nor
is it defined [declared] in any of the include files created during the gcc
build/install process. Presumably this is why the specimen code isinf() will
not compile under gcc3.3.2 with either 'gcc' or 'gcc -O[23]'.
Yet such code DOES compile with gcc -O under gcc4.0.2. However, the following
does not compile, with or without -O :-
int something(float f)
{
f = f*f ;
}
int main ()
{
float f ;
if(isinf(f))
return 1 ;
else
return 2 ;
return 0;
}
Here, the optimiser is obviously unable to make assumptions about the value
that would be returned by isinf() if the function were present, and the code is
rejected.
This 'bug' breaks autoconf tests for the presence of isinf()
