Subject: [ruby-core:39961] [Ruby 1.9 - Bug #5384] Ruby 1.9.3-RC1 Fails to Compile on Illumos (OpenSolaris)


Issue #5384 has been updated by Naohisa Goto.


It seems the problem about the use of dl_iterate_phdr issue() defined in <link.h> was already reported, but the bug report seems to be disappeared possibly due to the change of project website.

In http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-11/msg02770.html
> * Until Solaris 11 build 154, <link.h> cannot be used with largefile
>   support.  This is tracked as
> 
>   6997934	<link.h> cannot be used in largefile-aware program

Bug #5384: Ruby 1.9.3-RC1 Fails to Compile on Illumos (OpenSolaris)
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/5384

ruby -v: -


An attempt was made recently to compile http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.3-rc1.tar.bz2 and it seems every call to the compiler passes _D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 which returns the fatal error 'large files are not supported by libelf' on a fresh install of OpenIndiana with GCC 4.6.1. 

Snippet of Error:
....
compiling addr2line.c
In file included from /usr/include/link.h:31:0,
                 from addr2line.c:42:
/usr/include/libelf.h:42:2: error: #error "large files are not supported by libelf"
make: *** [addr2line.o] Error 1
....

Discussion on IRC pointed out http://src.illumos.org/source/xref/illumos-gate/usr/src/head/libelf.h#41 and a request was made to file a bug report.
