Compiling the RTEMS HEAD

[Claus, Ric]

Hi All,

  Back in October, I was able to compile RTEMS out of the box (.bz2 file), however, recently (since at least the turn of the year), I've not been successful.  I have the same trouble with the CVS HEAD.  My target platform is powerpc/virtex.

Below is a dump of the crash.  The version of GCC on a RHEL 5 build machine is:

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-50)

I've traced the issue down to the <math.h> installed on this system wanting to have the __USE_ISOC99 macro defined before it will include <bits/huge_valf.h> (and various other files).  The simple way out is to define the macro _ISOC99_SOURCE, which will in turn cause the other one to be defined (see <features.h>), but I'll venture that that's probably not the right solution.  Would someone please point me to a proper way to fix this?

  Apologies for the newbe question, but if this is the wrong forum to post such questions, please redirect me.

Thanks,
               Ric Claus
