Very Computer

Hello,

I've been bitten by namespace problems with GCC (core dumps on code
that compiled fine under Solaris, until I changed a variable named
"time")

I'm curious whether the gcc modifications that the Linux-FT people
made to bring GCC and the GNU/Linux library into POSIX compliance have
been folded into current or future releases of the compiler and
library.  Does anyone know anything about this?

Thanks,

David.

We are working with Linus to fold our patches back into the Linux kernel.
Once the standard kernel include files are clean, work can start on
libraries and so on.
