Hi Camm.

You may have forgotten to check in a new version of gclincl.h to support
those new configure macros.

Cheers

Mike Thomas.

| Thanks for your submission.  I checked it out, and just committed
| something quite close into both branches, as I've tested that the
| change has no effect on the ansi test suite, maxima, acl2, nor axiom.
| (Will also be testing the nqthm's, but expect all to be well here.)
|
| What people should know about this change is that the
| ADDITIONAL_FEATURES macro in the .h platform specific files is now
| obsolete.  These were used in the vast majority of instances to get
| cpu and system info into the *features* list -- now we put in the
| results straight from configure's $host_cpu and $host_os.
|
| There were exactly 4 features other than these extant in the h/ files:
|
| ADD_FEATURE("BROKEN_O4_OPT")
|
| Used in mingw.h -- no effect any longer in gcl_cmpmain.lsp
|
| ADD_FEATURE("BUGGY-CC")
|
| defined in several old h/ files -- never used.
|
| ADD_FEATURE("IGNORE-UNRESOLVED")
|
| defined for irix5.h, turns on a similarly named C compiler flag.  I
| view this as obsolete, but the hooks are still there if anyone
| wants/needs this port in the future.  This C flag is best added by
| setting the CFLAGS shell environment variable before building.
|
| ADD_FEATURE("POINTER-BIGGER-INT")
|
| Set in ./h/alpha-osf1.h and unused.
|
| I have not edited the h files, just removed the effect of
| ADDITIONAL_FEATURES in main.c, in case a reversal is needed in the
| future.
|
| Take care,
|
