[ I'm now also Cc:ing this to the Wine developers, thus the full-quote.
In fact, all non-GLIBC platforms seem to be affected by this bug! ]
Based on your pointer, I believe I found the problem. In aclocal.m4 we
have:
AC_DEFUN([WINE_CHECK_ERRNO],
[AC_CACHE_CHECK([for reentrant libc: $1],[wine_cv_libc_r_$1],
[AC_TRY_RUN([int myerrno = 0;
char buf[256];
int *$1(){return &myerrno;}
main(){connect(0,buf,255); exit(!myerrno);}],
wine_cv_libc_r_$1=yes, wine_cv_libc_r_$1=no,
wine_cv_libc_r_$1=yes)])
AS_IF([test "$wine_cv_libc_r_$1" = "yes"],[$2],[$3])])
which, in configure, becomes:
int myerrno = 0;
char buf256;
int *__error(){return &myerrno;}
main(){connect(0,buf,255); exit(!myerrno);}
That is, instead of an array of 256 characters, we have one character,
and the invocation of connect() is definitely incorrect.
Could someone more familiar with autoconf please have a look at this?
