Subject: bug#12464: 24.2.50; nt/configure.bat fails to detect giflib-5.0.0
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2012 18:13:45 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87y5k7ae2e.wl%%xmue@d1.dion.ne.jp> (raw)

Because gif_lib.h of giflib-5.0.0 assumes size_t is defined (I don't
know whether that is intended), nt/configure.bat fails to check its
availability.

In nt/config.log
> In file included from junk.c:1:0:
> f:/build/emacs-w32/include/gif_lib.h:262:37: error: expected ';', ',' or ')' before 'GifExtensionLength'

> The failed program was:

> gcc -If:/build/emacs-w32/include -If:/build/emacs-w32/include/libxml2 -g  -c junk.c -o junk.obj 

Though I don't know whether Emacs supports giflib-5.0.0, the below
patch can fix the problem.  Gif support on my binaries (built by gcc
4.5.2, MinGW) has no problem with giflib-5.0.0 as far as I tested.
