Description backes 2006-01-19 06:45:23 UTC 
I downloaded the WindowMaker-0.92.0.tar.gz and tried to compile it under FedoraCore4, AMD XP 3200+.

The compilation breaks with the following error message:
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/WindowMaker-0.92.0/wrlib'
Making all in .
gmake[2]: Entering directory `/tmp/WindowMaker-0.92.0/wrlib'
`echo /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../src  -I/usr/local/include  -I/usr/X11R6/include    -g -O2 | sed -e s/-fomit-frame-pointer//` -O0 -c x86_specific.c

This is an error but not always a bug in GCC.  It is most likely a bug in the WindowMaker source.
Can you attach the preprocessed source?

It seems to be an error in the source.
Comment 3 backes 2006-01-19 08:53:06 UTC 
I will report it to the WindowMaker developpers. You may close the bag.
Comment 4 Andrew Pinski 2006-01-19 12:38:03 UTC 
Yes this is a dup of the closed (invalid) bug 11203.
