It is a minor annoyance that should be fixed one day. In the source tree we have * libffi/src/mips/n32.S * libffi/src/mips/n32.s * libffi/src/mips/o32.S * libffi/src/mips/o32.s The *.s just include the *.S This causes some warnings when using CVS on cygwin, but fortunately the files aren't used on cygwin. There is the potential to cause problems building a cross compiler, etc. Tom Tromey suggested a fix >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >>From Tom Tromey : My suggestion is to copy *.S to *.s (if you look at the .s files you'll see they are just #include <> anyway), update Makefile.am, and make sure to pass `-x assembler-with-cpp' to the gcc invocation (we know only gcc will be used to build libffi) somehow. (You might think we could just use *.S but I think that is unreliable. I've found in practice that sometimes the case of a file can seemingly randomly be changed on NT at least.) I would do this but as it turns out I don't immediately have a convenient way to test this. Maybe eventually I'll build a cross toolchain to try it. I'd rather someone who builds on the right sort of machine regularly do it though. Tom >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
