Please report your platform and compiler to ." #endif I see it when cross building for --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 using Fedora 20's g++ (gcc version 4.8.4 20141219 (Fedora MinGW 4.8.4-1.fc20)), Simon reports seeing this on several cross compilers too. The issue is that on some hosts that predate C++11, when using C++ one must define __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS/__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS to make visible the definitions of INTMAX_C / INTMAX_MAX etc. This was a C99 requirement that later C++11 -- the first to define stdint.h -- removed, and then C11 removed it as well. https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/stdint_002eh.html says that gnulib's stdint.h fixes this, but because we run gnulib's configure tests with a C compiler, gnulib determines that mingw's stdint.h is C99-compliant, and doesn't actually replace it. Actually, even though configuring gnulib with a C++ compiler does result in gnulib replacing stdint.h, the resulting replacement is broken for mingw, because it defines uintptr_t incorrectly. I sent a gnulib patch upstream to fix that, here: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2015-11/msg00004.html but then even with that, gnulib still stumbles on other configured-with-C++-compiler problems. So for now, until gnulib + C++ is fixed upstream and then gdb's copy is updated, which may take a while, I think it's best to keep configuring gnulib in C, and define __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS/__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS ourselves, just like C99 intended. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-11-17 Pedro Alves * common/common-defs.h (__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS) (__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS): Define before including stdint.h. --- diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index fbfe4ad..d326b9c 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,5 +1,10 @@ 2015-11-17 Pedro Alves + * common/common-defs.h (__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS) + (__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS): Define before including stdint.h. + +2015-11-17 Pedro Alves + * windows-nat.c (handle_exception): Return 0 for first chance exceptions.
