I could investigate behavior of mcrypt code if windowmaker example is not enough. I am not a GCC guru, but I think that GCC uses optimizations where it is not appropriate (or it might indicate problem with aliasing). Anyway, I think that GCC should issue a warning about empty list (as it could lead to unexpected results) and we should also create check for rpmlint to remove all these deprecated prototypes from our packages. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
