[Bug binutils/12075] New: cross binutils-2.20.51.0.11 doesn't build with zlib-devel-1.2.5.

[pluto at agmk dot net]

hi,

i've noticed an error during binutils crosscompilation
on i686-gnu-linux for x86-64-pc-mingw32 target:

(...)
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
compress.c: In function 'bfd_compress_section_contents':
compress.c:106:3: error: passing argument 2 of 'compress' from incompatible 
pointer type
/usr/include/zlib.h:1102:21: note: expected 'uLongf *' but argument is of type 
'bfd_size_type *'

afaics zlib expects address of ulong32 for argument 'compressed_size'
while bfd_compress_section_contents() passes address of bfd_size_type
which has 64-bits.

temporary patch for clean build:
http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/packages/crossmingw64-binutils/
crossmingw64-binutils-zlib.patch?rev=1.1;content-type=text%2Fplain
