Trying to compile the 1.60a version from scratch, I get this:

  Compiling o/db.o....
db.c:33: execinfo.h: No such file or directory
db.c: In function `void bug(const char *, ...)':
db.c:6018: implicit declaration of function `int backtrace(...)'
db.c:6019: implicit declaration of function `int backtrace_symbols(...)'
db.c:6019: assignment to `char **' from `int' lacks a cast
cc1plus: warnings being treated as errors
db.c:6021: warning: unknown conversion type character `z' in format
db.c:6021: warning: too many arguments for format
gmake[2]: *** [o/db.o] Error 1

System is FreeBSD, what else does anyone need to figure this out?

Would also be nice to know if that needs to be done in OpenBSD as well.

Moonwolf, apologies for once again disturbing your thread. If you could repost the current problem you're having with it we can take a look. I know we left off with the 0.f thing and that will be corrected since it appears as though BSD doesn't like the damn things

I see you found the mass import function

OK, the problem with db.c was fixed.

The problem with environment.c was fixed.

Now I get this:

Heh. Mass import indeed. Too bad it seems to have done such a hatchet job, but hey. It beats not having the posts in an active forum at all.

As for your problem, this is getting way beyond silly. It looks like your compiler is now complaining about "event" being a reserved keyword. I think perhaps you have an offbeat version of FreeBSD with an even more offbeat compiler.

Possible solution: Edit the Makefile and change g++ to gcc and then recompile and see where you get. The code should still compile cleanly as straight C.

Well, other than that 0.f issue which I had to fix in a few more files, it now lookg like it works.

I'll try a fresh copy of the arhive and try juct changing c++ to gcc in the Magefile to see how that compiles out.
