so here's the patch file i added for the OE build, since we're
building from the tarball. is this what you're talking about?

Interesting. Which version of cpp/gcc does that?
Thanks,

cpp (GCC) 4.4.2 20091027
It didn't happen with 4.4.1.

I can’t reproduce the problem with 4.4.2 on x86_64-linux-gnu. Could it
be that your distro ships a version of gcc that differs from upstream’s?
Thanks,
Ludo’.

Possibly. It looks like it's a post 4.4.2 SVN snapshot and there are
also some extra patches in the package.

i was the original reporter, and i can verify that adding the -P
option for linemarkers fixed the problem. this was on a fedora 12
x86_64 system with cpp-4.4.2.

The problem is that we support cpps other than GNU cpp, which may not
support ‘-P’, so we need to check that at configure-time, etc., and I
want to make sure we fully understand the problem before writing
configure wizardry.
Thanks,
Ludo’.
