Re: Problem build 4.0.3 on Tru64 5.1A

To follow up to my own message (since nobody else has):

Once upon a time, Chris Adams <cmadams@hiwaay.net> said:

This happens because on Tru64, stat() is defined as a macro (with two
arguments).  The referenced line in rpmdb/db3.c is:

    rc = db->stat(db, &dbi->dbi_stats, flags);

which the C preprocessor tries to expand with the stat() macro.

I can't see a way around this except to "#undef stat" before the line
above (but then if someone wants to use stat() later in the same file it
will be broken).  Any suggestions?
