gdb-5.3.92 autoconf bug

[james waite]

Configuring gdb-5.3.92 on Solaris 8:

----------
Unix% uname -a
SunOS sandstone 5.8 Generic_108528-19 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10
Unix%
----------

The following ./configure error occurred:

----------
...
checking sys/ptem.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: sys/ptem.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: sys/ptem.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: sys/ptem.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to address@hidden ##
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------ ##
checking for sys/ptem.h... yes
...
----------

Compiling /usr/include/sys/ptem.h with gcc stand-alone produces:

----------
sandstone/jwaite% !gcc
gcc -o c1 c1.c
In file included from c1.c:1:
/usr/include/sys/ptem.h:25: parse error before `mblk_t'
/usr/include/sys/ptem.h:25: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union
/usr/include/sys/ptem.h:26: warning: data definition has no type or storage

/usr/include/sys/ptem.h:29: parse error before `}'

Hope this is useful.  JMW
