gamin-0.1.6-freebsd.patch (476 bytes, patch)

Description Diego Elio Pettenò 2005-09-09 09:35:57 UTC 
Distribution/Version: Gentoo/FreeBSD 5.4

Compiling gamin on non-GLIBC systems, although it's improved in latest 0.1.6, 
it's still not possible. 
 
The reason is that the check for PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE that is used will 
always fail because it uses a faulty logic: 
 
#ifndef PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE 
        pthread_mutexattr_settype(&attr, PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE_NP); 
#else 
        pthread_mutexattr_settype(&attr, PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE); 
#endif 
 
but both PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE and PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE_NP are enum 
entries, not #defines so it will not work. 
 
The attached patch looks directly for __GLIBC__ and should then be safe.
