Ron how so? If romcc compiles it should work. I don't have any excuse for romcc to behave different depending on what compiler compiles it.
it makes no sense to me either, as romcc is clean and well-written. It is just what I have seen: it won't work on my RH 7.3 box, with: gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-110)
BTW, config.py as of today doesn't work with this error: File "/home/rminnich/src/freebios2/util/newconfig/config.py", line 1393, in term return long(NUM, 10) TypeError: long requires exactly 1 argument; 2 given
I think somebody broke something. Python it turns out rotates function definitions frequently, with the result that it is hard to write python-version-independent code.
