Ping... this is still open, in short, the configuration
../gcc-4.9-20140202/configure --prefix=/home/ed/gnu/arm-linux-gnueabihf-cross --host=arm-linux-gnueabihf --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,ada --with-arch=armv7-a --with-tune=cortex-a9 --with-fpu=vfpv3-d16 --with-float=hard fails with this error: In file included from ../../gcc-4.9-20140202/gcc/config/host-linux.c:21:0: ../../gcc-4.9-20140202/gcc/config/host-linux.c: In function 'int linux_gt_pch_use_address(void*, size_t, int, size_t)': ../../gcc-4.9-20140202/gcc/config/host-linux.c:215:43: error: 'SSIZE_MAX' was not declared in this scope nbytes = read (fd, base, MIN (size, SSIZE_MAX)); ^ ../../gcc-4.9-20140202/gcc/system.h:351:26: note: in definition of macro 'MIN' #define MIN(X,Y) ((X) < (Y) ? (X) : (Y)) ^ make[2]: *** [host-linux.o] Error 1 The reason is that the target's limits.h gets replaced by glimits.h which does not define SSIZE_MAX. This is the only place where SSIZE_MAX is used. Therefore I'd try to avoid that define which is not guaranteed to be defined. Boot-Strapped and regression-tested on X86_64. Plus cross-build for arm-linux-gnueabihf. OK for trunk?
