[M3devel] HEADS UP: CM3 builds broken

[Olaf Wagner]

Tonight some of the tinderbox builds failed for CM3. First I thought
it was just these changes to FilePosix which had already been fixed:

----------------------------
revision 1.8
date: 2008-02-12 04:32:40 +0000;  author: hosking;  state: Exp;   
lines: +1 -1;  commitid: pvCLLyqdDKQm24Rs;
This checkin fixes something Jay left behind.

Please check things build on platforms other than yours before making
changes.  The VAL is necessary on some targets because 0 is INTEGER whereas
result is Utypes.off_t (LONGINT on I386_DARWIN) and cannot be directly
compared with an INTEGER (result).  The VAL is how we do the conversion to
LONGINT.

On platforms where Utypes.off_t is INTEGER this code will work the same as it
is.
----------------------------
revision 1.7
date: 2008-02-11 05:38:23 +0000;  author: jkrell;  state: Exp;  lines:  
+1 -1;  commitid: j3ewJLumr87rqWQs;
more cygwin header cleanup, various dead types were used
   in further dead types in Ushm.i3; go ahead and delete
   dead stuff instead of commenting out
remove seemingly unnecessary VAL() that fails to compile

but when I try to build now on my FreeBSD system, I get this from cm3:

% ./m3-sys/cm3/FreeBSD4/cm3 -version

***
*** runtime error:
***    Segmentation violation - possible attempt to dereference NIL
***    pc = 0x821cf26 = EmptyBuffer + 0xc6 in ../src/rw/FileWr.m3
***

^C

Please check all the latest commits carefully and back out anything
that seems suspicious or has not been tested.

Thanks,

Olaf
