Re: [Edoc-main] Patch to build on 64-bit systems

[Brendon C. <bre...@gm...>]

Thanks for the report and the patch.

I just started using 64 bit Ubuntu a few weeks ago and had the same
problem. It is fixed in CVS, though the current fix does not always
configure using --disable-multilib but allows you to pass any
configure options you like to the GCC configure script  from the
EDoC++ configure script. I use --with-gcc-config="--disable-multilib".
I will look into why GCC configures with multilib by default and
decide If I should always pass --disable-multilib or stick with the
GCC convention of always building with multilib enabled unless
explicitly requested to disable it.

Additionally there is a fix in CVS for a stack overflow bug in EDoC++
when reading embedded EDoC++ data from a binary file using libbfd. On
newer Ubuntu systems this causes a crash with a stack smashing
detected error.

Checkout the head of CVS to get these updates. I will be releasing
0.2.2 very soon with these fixes.

Thanks,
Brendon.
