#19 closed defect (fixed)

gcc: gcc limits.h overrides limits.h from libc

Reported by: bird Owned by: bird
Priority: high Milestone: libc-0.6.1
Component: gcc Version: 0.6
Severity: normal Keywords: gcc libc limits.h

Description

GCC has it's own limits.h which hides the limits.h in usr/include installed by libc. This means that we're missing lot's a stuff, esp. PATH_MAX.

Don the necessary libc bit (on the trunk). There are three #defines which libc isn't defining. These has been added to sys/syslimits.h.

GCC doesn't detect our limits.h because the path used in the test statement has lot's of backslashes. Have made an attempt at fixing it by messing with the PATH, so for untested and I'm unsure if it'll help..

The PATH wasn't the clue. The problem was in t-emx, first we used a PC slashy path so we've never found the libc limits.h, and second we overridden STMP_FIXINC so when the first problem was fixed syslimits.h wasn't found. But now it seems like it's working again.
