Description Frank Rehberger 2003-04-06 22:45:55 UTC 
after updating ORBit2/src/orb/poa/poa.c (AFAICS 1.90->1.92) I get SEGV in
the moment object_to_string is called, ie 'echo-server':

Okay, so this turns out to be a build problem. See:

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/orbit-list/2003-April/msg00016.html



The bug could be closed out as NOTABUG, but if someone had the time to
nail down where our dependancy tracking went wrong that'd be even better.

This is down to a cretinous bug in various versions of autotools, that
simply refuse to generate dependencies if you have >1 header file in
_SOURCES - something that we could work around with EXTRA_DIST if we
felt pretty evil, but ... ;-)

Of course - in order to get that fix, I believe we have to upgrade to
trendy version 1.9.17.8 that breaks all known existing autotools
projects - so, really the only solution is to further obfuscate our
autotools stuff; or to hammer on the autotools people to maintain
their older versions and stop breaking things in newer ones ;-) [ an
unlikely outcome ].
