Re[4]: Announcing libstdc++-2.90.7

[Roman Belenov <roman at nstl dot nnov dot ru>]

Hello Matthew,

Another build attempt revealed that there are two different problems -
on  Linux  I succesfully built libstdc++ in separate directory and got
error  on  install stage when building in source dir; on NT system the
error appeared no matter where the build directory was.

MB> I *did* configure and build from a separate directory -- it's a habit with
MB> me.
MB> I have successfully built and installed on my Solaris box, but it, again,
MB> required a tweak. This one was with <srcdir>/config/solaris/ctype.cc:
MB> The gcc 2.95.1 compiler complains about '__trans_upper' and __trans_lower'
MB> being 'int *' while the left side of the related assignments are 'long int
MB> *'. Performing a C-style cast to 'long int *' in these four statements
MB> allows the compile to succeed.
