Re: Request for swapcontext and getcontext to be ported to our libc

[Petr Janda <elekktretterr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just letting you know that mtasker now compiles after 
buildworld/installworld. Though, wip/powerdns-recusor doesnt compile yet 
(a new error), not mtasker related.


pdns_recursor.cc: In function `void startDoResolve(void*)':
pdns_recursor.cc:563: error: invalid conversion from `void*' to `char*'
pdns_recursor.cc:564: error: invalid conversion from `void*' to `char*'
pdns_recursor.cc:1139: confused by earlier errors, bailing out

[wrapper.sh] note: The real command line, after the pkgsrc wrapper, was:
/usr/obj/pkgsrc/wip/powerdns-recursor/work/.gcc/bin/g++ -O -pipe 
-I/usr/obj/pkgsrc/wip/powerdns-recursor/work/.buildlink/include -Wall 
-O3 -c -o pdns_recursor.o pdns_recursor.cc 
-L/usr/obj/pkgsrc/wip/powerdns-recursor/work/.buildlink/lib
gmake: *** [pdns_recursor.o] Error 1
*** Error code 2


If someone could please take a look at it, I would be very happy.
