Thus spake Ulrich Spoerlein (q_at_uni.de) [19/12/03 14:27]: : > i try to compile 5.2 (cvsed) on a 5.1 machine. When i do so i get this error: : > : > /usr/src/lib/libpam/modules/pam_echo/pam_echo.c: In function `_pam_echo': : > /usr/src/lib/libpam/modules/pam_echo/pam_echo.c:92: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules : > *** Error code 1 : : You are not giving the command leading to this error, but I suspect it's : because of CFLAGS=-02. : : Please note that optimizations other than -O are NOT supported. There was a lot of discussion about this not too long ago, and the final conclusions was that while it is not supported, the PAM code is actually breaking the strict aliasing rules. For some reason, GCC only picks this up when -O2 or higher is enabled. I /think/ DES committed some code to fix the breakage, so it will now compile with -O2, but the official stance is still: don't use -O2, it's unsupported.Received on Fri Dec 19 2003 - 10:36:46 UTC
