mdate 01 Aug 2000

pr 10383
descr
In order to extend the termcap string over 1023 bytes, a ZZ entry was
introduced to point to a memory location containing the full entry.
Without this hack, xterm will export a termcap containing the ZZ
entry, which will then be ignored by libterm. As xterm modifies the
exported termcap, this would cause those modifications to be ignored.

hack Compensation for differing types of LINUX_USRSTACK and USRSTACK
cdate 21 Aug 2003
who he
file sys/miscfs/procfs/procfs_linux.c : 1.14
descr
Not all ports have LINUX_USRSTACK and/or USRSTACK defined as
literals/constants, but refer to variables of a type which is
not "unsigned long", causing compilation of procfs_linux.c to
fail with "makes integer from pointer without a cast". This
is observed on e.g. the sun3 port. Ideally the "types" for
symbols should be consistent across all ports.

GCC 4.1 gets many uninitialised variable warnings wrong. We should
really audit all the old hacks like this when older compilers are
removed from the tree, as many are probably no longer required.
The problem is that it does not recognize initialization via function
call pointer. I.e.
int p;
foo(&p);
does not mark p as initialized.

descr
Our cabs and cabsf have a different argument format on some architectures
and for that we have created in libm/compat_cabs{,f}.c. The standard
versions in libc are __c99_cabs{,f,l} and there are __RENAME()'s in
<complex.h>. G++ uses __builtin_cabs{,f,l} to implement those and they
translate by default to cabs{,f,l} which gets defined to cabs{,f} (the
wrong function) and an undefined cabsl. I've changed <complex> to use
the __c99_cabs{,f,l} directly. Using the __builtin_cabs{,f,l} in gcc is
still broken.
