Bug Fix Advisory - RHBA-2009:1533-1
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
gcc bug fix update
A gcc update that resolves an option handling bug where only the last
"-fno-builtin-*" option specified on the command line was honored is now
available.
Description:
The gcc packages include C, C++, Java, Fortran, Objective C, and Ada 95 GNU
compilers, along with related support libraries.
This update fixes the following bug:
* if multiple "-fno-builtin-*" options were specified on the command line
(for example, "-fno-builtin-iswalpha -fno-builtin-iswalnum") only the last
option was honored (in the example, -fno-builtin-iswalnum). With this
update, joined switches are no longer pruned, ensuring all such options are
honored, as expected. (BZ#526421)
Users are advised to install this gcc update, which applies this fix.
