So jnthn asked on IRC for someone to get the NQP commit that causes the
build to break and I think I got it
I set rakudo to build from rakudo commit
0fde4a1e375a26da8d7b511aafdb6174e934b757 and did Perl Configure.pl --
gen-parrot and watched the build failed as described. Then I started
from NQP commit 6be8ad9fd52fe4b769e6ba92a0e3de24b2f971e9 and did git --
reset hard for each commit after it in the nqp directory until it
failed.
For NQP commit ba8bf9311b31bacfeb0fcf368ccdf33bd375fd58 I can do a
"make clean; make" and nqp builds.
For NQP commit 35db04446b64c1d8f0a88e7579c2bbd0b3c5f2ea, the very next
one, "make clean; make" fails with the characteristic invoke() not
implemented error.
Thanks for that...sadly, knowing it was that commit doesn't immediately
give me a good idea of what is going wrong; it's one where the bootstrap
copy of the files is updated, but the stage 2 should really have failed
in previous revisions if there was breakage.
Please can I get platform details (32-bit or 64-bit, OS, compiler) from
anybody who has this issue? I'll dig a bit deeper and see if I can spot
anything that could be to blame between this bootstrap update and the
previous one.
Thanks,
Jonathan
