[Cppunit-devel] gcc-3.4.4 fails to compile cppunit-1.10.2 example

[Graham M. CCN-1. <ga...@la...>]

I just got cppunit-1.10.2 and gcc-3.4.4.


I successfully built gcc-3.4.4. The gnu organization requests  
information about successful builds, which I'm sending to you for  
reference.

cppunit compiled without error with gcc-3.4.4 after configuring as  
follows (pwd was the directory where I built gcc).

807  export CC=`pwd`/bin/gcc
809  export CXX=`pwd`/bin/g++
811  export CPPFLAGS="-I `pwd`/include"

configure --prefix=/home/projects/nisac/current-third-party  
--with-gnu-ld CC="$CC" CXX="$CXX" CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS"

Although the 'make' succeeded, 'make check' failed as shown below. (All  
the other tests compiled and ran successfully.)

I tried cppunit-1.10.2 under gcc-3.3.2. With that compiler, cppunit  
successfully compiled and ran all tests.

The test code that fails under gcc-3.4.4 looks okay to me, but I'm not  
an expert. Is the failure due to a bug in the compiler, or to some  
non-conformant code in the test that gcc previously accepted?

Thanks.
