fedora9 with its gcc 4.3 doesn't compile nginx 0.6.3x while fedora8 with gcc 4.1.2 does

[Pawel Eljasz]

Hi Andrew,
I don't think so, there is an inclusion of what you mention, not 
directly in the file which fails
besides, what I said, why it's just fine on fedora8 but not f9, and both 
sets are pretty much
default distros, surely with regards to the compiler and related stuff
and to me, but with reservation I ain't a programmer, 
declaration/definition of IOV_MAX is
in /usr/include/bits/stdio_lim.h
isn't it?
cheers
and Hi Tom,
I actually asked them before I posted here, and creator of the program 
said that is
highly probable it's related to my build environment
the same code works on fedora8
cheers

and! I grabbed source version from devel repo, nginx-0.6.31-1.fc10.src.rpm
I could build a rpm from it on f9, so? what is that, fedora patches?
if yes, which part? if I may ask?

best regards
Pawel
