As xterm modifies the 69 exported termcap, this would cause those modifications to be ignored. 70kcah 71 72hack wi-at-big-endian-bus 73cdate 15 Mar 2002 74who martin 75file dev/ic/wireg.h 76descr Add an option to access the underlying bus in big endian byte order 77 to work around deficiencies in bus_space_{read,write}_* macros. 78 Those don't allow the implementation of a proper pcmcia bus space 79 tag. 80kcah 81 82hack specific knowledge of colours in curses code 83cdate Sun Apr 6 11:05:24 BST 2003 84who jdc 85file lib/libcurses/color.c : r1.24 86descr 87 Swap red/blue and yellow/cyan colours for COLOR_OTHER. 88 Fix is to enhance libtermcap to understand terminfo-style % sequences. 89 See also: 90 http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-userlevel/2003/04/06/0000.html 91kcah 92 93hack Compensation for differing types of LINUX_USRSTACK and USRSTACK 94cdate 21 Aug 2003 95who he 96file sys/miscfs/procfs/procfs_linux.c : 1.14 97descr 98 Not all ports have LINUX_USRSTACK and/or USRSTACK defined as 99 literals/constants, but refer to variables of a type which is 100 not "unsigned long", causing compilation of procfs_linux.c to 101 fail with "makes integer from pointer without a cast". This 102 is observed on e.g. the sun3 port. Ideally the "types" for 103 symbols should be consistent across all ports. 104kcah 105 106hack gcc4 wrong uninitialized variable 107mdate 10 May 2006 108who mrg 109file bin/ksh/eval.c : 1.6 110file bin/sh/histedit.c : 1.39 111file bin/sh/parser.c : 1.60 112file crypto/dist/heimdal/kdc/524.c : 1.10 113file crypto/dist/ssh/sftp.c : 1.20 114file crypto/dist/ssh/ssh-keysign.c : 1.11 115file dist/ipf/lib/hostname.c : 1.2 116file dist/ipf/tools/ipmon.c : 1.8 117file dist/ntp/ntpd/ntp_request.c : 1.4 118file dist/ntp/ntpd/refclock_shm.c : 1.4 119file dist/ntp/sntp/timing.c : 1.3 120file dist/pppd/pppstats/pppstats.c : 1.3 121file dist/smbfs/lib/smb/rap.c : 1.6 122file dist/tcpdump/print-zephyr.c : 1.5 123file distrib/utils/sysinst/aout2elf.c : 1.12 124file gnu/libexec/uucp/uucico/uucico.c : 1.6 125file lib/libc/citrus/citrus_csmapper.c : 1.6 126file lib/libc/citrus/citrus_pivot_factory.c : 1.5 127file lib/libc/inet/inet_cidr_ntop.c : 1.3 128file lib/libc/inet/inet_ntop.c : 1.3 129file lib/libc/stdio/vfwprintf.c : 1.8 130file libexec/ld.elf_so/arch/m68k/mdreloc.c : 1.20 131file libexec/ld.elf_so/arch/powerpc/ppc_reloc.c : 1.40 132file libexec/ld.elf_so/arch/sh3/mdreloc.c : 1.22 133file libexec/ld.elf_so/arch/sparc/mdreloc.c : 1.39 134file libexec/ld.elf_so/arch/sparc64/mdreloc.c : 1.39 135file libexec/ld.elf_so/arch/vax/mdreloc.c : 1.21 136file libexec/ld.elf_so/arch/x86_64/mdreloc.c : 1.27 137file sbin/fsck_ext2fs/dir.c : 1.19 138file sbin/routed/rtquery/rtquery.c : 1.18 139file sys/arch/amd64/amd64/pmap.c : 1.26 140file sys/arch/i386/pci/piixpcib.c : 1.4 141file sys/arch/m68k/m68k/pmap_motorola.c : 1.4 142file sys/crypto/cast128/cast128.c : 1.9 143file sys/ddb/db_command.c : 1.86 144file sys/dev/cardbus/cardbus_map.c : 1.21 145file sys/dev/fss.c : 1.25 146file sys/dev/ic/igsfb.c : 1.39 147file sys/dev/ic/mb86950.c : 1.5 148file sys/dev/ic/midway.c : 1.71 149file sys/dev/kttcp.c : 1.18 150file sys/dev/rasops/rasops_bitops.h : 1.9 151file sys/dev/pci/cmpci.c : 1.31 152file sys/dev/pci/machfb.c : 1.45 153file sys/dev/usb/ohci.c : 1.174 154file sys/dev/usb/uhci.c : 1.196 155file sys/dev/rasops/rasops_bitops.h : 1.9 156file sys/dist/ipf/netinet/ip_nat.c : 1.10 157file sys/dist/ipf/netinet/ip_rpcb_pxy.c : 1.8 158file sys/dist/pf/net/pf.c : 1.22 159file sys/fs/udf/udf_vnops.c : 1.4 160file sys/kern/kern_sig.c : 1.219 161file sys/kern/tty.c : 1.181 162file sys/net/bpf.c : 1.116 163file sys/net/zlib.c : 1.26 164file sys/netccitt/if_x25subr.c : 1.37 165file sys/netinet/in.c : 1.107 166file sys/netsmb/smb_smb.c : 1.27 167file sys/netsmb/smb_trantcp.c : 1.22 168file sys/nfs/nfs_serv.c : 1.108 169file sys/nfs/nfs_socket.c : 1.129 170file sys/nfs/nfs_syscalls.c : 1.91 171file sys/ufs/lfs/lfs_vfsops.c : 1.207 [also (char *)] 172file usr.bin/ftp/ftp.c : 1.140 173file usr.bin/find/function.c : 1.54 174file usr.bin/mail/tty.c : 1.20 175file usr.bin/msgc/msg_sys.def : 1.33-1.34 176file usr.bin/nl/nl.c : 1.7 177file usr.bin/systat/keyboard.c : 1.23 178file usr.bin/usbhidctl/usbhid.c : 1.29 179file usr.bin/vi/cl/cl_read.c : 1.5 180file usr.bin/vi/ex/ex_cscope.c : 1.12 181file usr.bin/vi/ex/ex_tag.c : 1.19 182file usr.bin/vi/vi/v_txt.c : 1.15 183file usr.sbin/altq/altqstat/qdisc_rio.c : 1.4 184file usr.sbin/cron/do_command.c : 1.19 185file usr.sbin/timed/timed/slave.c : 1.15 186descr 187 GCC 4.1 gets many uninitialised variable warnings wrong.

The standard 403 versions in libc are __c99_cabs{,f,l} and there are __RENAME()'s in 404 <complex.h>. G++ uses __builtin_cabs{,f,l} to implement those and they 405 translate by default to cabs{,f,l} which gets defined to cabs{,f} (the 406 wrong function) and an undefined cabsl. I've changed <complex> to use 407 the __c99_cabs{,f,l} directly.
