             Bug #: 50888
           Summary: Bootstrap failure in libjava against latest git glibc
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.7.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: bootstrap

        ReportedBy: jakub@gcc.gnu.org
                CC: aph@gcc.gnu.org, mark@gcc.gnu.org, tromey@gcc.gnu.org

The problem is that libgcj is compiled with C++ and -fnon-call-exceptions, but
doesn't link against -lstdc++ nor -lsupc++.  <ctype.h> in glibc recently
changed, so that isspace in C++ is now an inline function:
# define __isctype_f(type) \
  __extern_inline int                                                         \
  is##type (int __c) __THROW                                                  \
  {                                                                           \
    return (*__ctype_b_loc ())[(int) (__c)] & (unsigned short int) _IS##type; \
  }
...
__isctype_f (space)

While __ctype_b_loc, a function pointer, has throw () on it, the isspace inline
has it too.  So normally not a problem.  But with -fnon-call-exceptions we end
up with __cxa_call_unexpected call just in case __ctype_b_loc fn pointer would
be invalid (it is not, but gcc doesn't know it).

        * prims.cc (__NO_CTYPE): For glibc define this before including
        ctype.h.

+/* glibc 2.15+ provides even for C++ inline optimized ::isspace etc.
+   Unfortunately those inlines are throw (), and call a function pointer

+#define __NO_CTYPE 1

 #include <ctype.h>
 #include <java-props.h>
 #define PROCESS_GCJ_PROPERTIES process_gcj_properties()

works for me but might be considered too hackish (__NO_CTYPE results in macro
says to <ctype.h> it should optimize isspace etc.).

Other alternatives would be to link -lsupc++ in, or replace use of isspace (c)
with memchr (" \t\n\r\v", c, 5) != NULL (the standard POSIX "C" locale isspace
characters), or use safe-ctype, etc.
