Comment 1 Christian Persch 2003-06-08 11:57:31 UTC 
Hmm... snprintf is declared in stdio.h, and mozilla-notifiers.cpp
includes that header. So there must be sth. wrong with your system.
Comment 2 Serge 2003-06-08 12:53:19 UTC 
nothing wrong with my system as far as I can see. everything compiles
normaly.
Comment 3 Serge 2003-06-08 12:59:04 UTC 
I mean every other program, except this release of epiphany.
Comment 4 Alastair Tse 2003-06-09 14:26:00 UTC 
we have a similar report on gentoo bugzilla with a user on the same
compiler. he reports that removing any -O? CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS is the
workaround. i can't confirm because i don't have a box with that
compiler on it.

Comment 5 Serge 2003-06-09 14:35:53 UTC 
unfortunately that didn t do the trick. I am still trying to find a
solution myself too. What I think is strange is that for example php,
mysql, postgres etc includes the snprintf source and header files. 

thanks for the help anyway.

Fixed in cvs. snprintf is not ansi.
