[Iverilog-devel] Possible build problem with older gcc and latest development.

[Cary R. <cy...@ya...>]

I thought I would let everyone know that there are a couple build
problem under OpenBSD which uses gcc-3.3.5. Things work
correctly on my RHEL 4.8 machine using-gcc 3.4.6. This looks
to be a gcc issue not an OS issue.

The two issues are that -Wextra is not supported, you need to
use -W and the malloc(), etc. replacements crash the STL files.
I have a fix for the later that I will integrate and push once I get
to a stable place in my current code changes. For the former I
plan to add a check in configure for this. There were also a
couple of minor changes need to get -W clean.

I plan to finish this over the weekend.
