This is now in the Tinderbox, on some machines, e.g. FreeBSD4.
I have two source trees on same machine sharing same install root, one sees it, one does not.
Even though I start the install root out by extracting the same initial snapshot, I think.
I think they are the same except for path but that needs scrutiny.
I am making SOME attempt to isolate it, but I'm not looking forward to it..
One expensive potshot is wait for a full hours-long gcc build with no switches.
In case it is a cm3cg problem, emanating from the compiler used to build cm3cg.
(I just did another build of cm3cg, took 11 minutes..)
That is:
There is a problem here. It's not just me. I MIGHT find it.
If anyone can save me the trouble, please do. :)
Other potshots include more conservative codegen like -fno-reorder-blocks -mno-double-align -O0, some/all of which are already in use. I was going to commit blindly such conservatism for FreeBSD4, however my local repro is persisting despite this.
It could still be some simple bootstrapping issue. I don't know.
SocketPosix is only using Compiler for some dormant platforms. The code is probably dead.
But hey, extra dead code finds extra live bugs. :)
Question:
Am I correct that, in the absence of cm3/cm3cg/underlying bugs, the following should never occur:
cd .../m3core
rm -rf
cm3
cm3 -ship
cd ../libm3
rm -rf
cm3
=> version stamp mismatch
? That is -- if this happens, it can't be any bootstrapping problem? These checks are libm3 vs. m3core, right? What the compiler itself is?
