FreeBSD defiant 6.2-BETA1 FreeBSD Gentoo 6.2_beta1 #1: Thu Sep 21 23:24:32 CEST 2006 root at defiant:/usr/src/sys-6.2_beta1/i386/compile/GENERIC i386
>Description:
Although I know that this is totally non-priority for FreeBSD developers, I'd like to report that the variable __evOptMonoTime is declared inconsistently in lib/libc/isc from the sources of the just released 6.2-BETA1 FreeBSD:
lib/libc/isc/eventlib_p.h:283:extern int __evOptMonoTime;
lib/libc/isc/ev_timers.c:53:static int __evOptMonoTime;
This leads to a failure in build with GCC 4.1, and it really makes no sense, so that the behaviour is really undefined even on other GCC versions.
As __evOptMonoTime seems to be an exported symbol to set global options, the static keyword should be dropped from ev_timers.c.
>How-To-Repeat:
Building with GCC 4.1 will show the error:
lib/libc/isc/ev_timers.c:53: error: static declaration of '__evOptMonoTime' follows non-static declaration
lib/libc/isc/eventlib_p.h:283: error: previous declaration of '__evOptMonoTime' was here
