Python does not compile on Solaris 10 x86 GA. The problem exists with gcc-3.4.3
shipped by Sun with Solaris and with a 3.4.4 snapshot I compiled.
I reproduced the problem with the following code fragment:
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 1000
#include <math.h>
int main()
{
double f=HUGE_VAL;
}
Compiler output is:
$ gcc hv.c
hv.c: In function `main':
hv.c:5: error: incompatible types in initialization
$
Python defines _XOPEN_SOURCE to be greater than 600 so it triggers the inclusion
of math_c99.h.
The fix is editing <iso/math_c99.h>. If I copy /usr/include/iso/math_c99.h to
<gcc-install-dir>/include/iso/math_c99.h and change the line
#define HUGE_VAL __builtin_huge_val
to
#define HUGE_VAL __builtin_huge_val().
With this change to math_c99.h, Python compiles properly. Should
mkheaders/fixincludes deal with this?
