C++ Darwin Port BUG in source code


I have found a serious bug in the darwin compiler port, which does get unnoticed
due to linker errors. The problem is that there are two different lookup_name() functions.
One is for C++ found in name-lookup[ch] and declared as:


extern tree lookup_name (tree, int);

and one if doe C and declared as:

extern tree lookup_name (tree);

Thus config/darwin-c.c, which is calling it inside darwin_pragma_unused() will
link fine but call the wrong function with improper parameters when implementing
#pragma unused. This is something that can't work properly.


Very likely the intention was to implement the pragma only for C.
