But it doesn't have the 'extern "C" { ... }' wrapper for C++; so if a C++ file includes (something which includes...) runetype.h, those two variable names will be mangled and produce 'Undefined symbol' errors at link time. >How-To-Repeat: Add '#include <runetype.h>' to any simple C++ program and try to link it >Fix: Add standard C++ 'extern "C" { ... }' wrapper to runetype.h >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
