RSB 4.11.2-rc4 rtems-arm build fails on Windows

[Linda Huxley]

Hi Chris,

After 3 other attempts, I did a clean build of the ARM version of RTEMS 
on Windows, using the following commands:

$ cd /c
$ mkdir -p opt/rtems
$ cd opt/rtems
$ wget 
https://ftp.rtems.org/pub/rtems/releases/4.11/rc/4.11.2-rc4/rtems-source-builder-4.11.2-rc4.tar.xz
$ tar Jxf rtems-source-builder-4.11.2-rc4.tar.xz
$ mv rtems-source-builder-4.11.2-rc4 r4.11.2
$ cd r4.11.2/rtems/
$ ../source-builder/sb-set-builder --prefix=/c/opt/rtems/4.11 
4.11/rtems-arm --jobs=none

The build fails with the following trace, much like the SPARC build 
failed before applying the patch provided by Worth Burruss.

error: building arg4n2xwm1
Build FAILED
   See error report: 
rsb-report-arm-rtems4.11-gcc-4.9.3-newlib-2.2.0.20150423-x86_64-w64-mingw32-1.txt
error: building arg4n2xwm1
Build Set: Time 0:36:57.587859
Build FAILED

The salient error messages at the bottom of the error report are:

In file included from ../../gcc-4.9.3/gcc/cp/except.c:1013:0:
cfns.gperf: In function 'const char* libc_name_p(const char*, unsigned 
int)':
cfns.gperf:101:1: error: 'const char* libc_name_p(const char*, unsigned 
int)' redeclared inline with 'gnu_inline' attribute
cfns.gperf:26:14: note: 'const char* libc_name_p(const char*, unsigned 
int)' previously declared here

Is it possible that RTEMS 4.11.2-rc4 does not apply Worth's patch when 
building the ARM version of RTEMS?

When I look in:

/c/opt/rtems/r4.11.2/rtems/patches

I only see the following patch files:

automake-1.12.6-bugzilla.redhat.com-1239379.diff
binutils-2.26-gas-reloc.patch
newlib-ARM-Optimize-IEEE-754-sqrt-implementation.diff

I do not see Worth's patch file anywhere:

gcc-4.9.3-20170404-1.patch

(In the mean time, I was able to build the i386 version of RTEMS, build 
an example RTEMS program then boot it and run it using VirtualBox.)

Regards,

Linda
