Please, don't apologize.

I think the closed list is obnoxious for people in your position, but
this is unfortunately what spam has reduced us to. I really wish we
could have a simpler way to get bug submissions in, so thanks for
going the extra step this time --- I really appreciate it.

Oh, that's a pretty harsh message. I wrote a much kinder paragraph for
mailman to use here, but I must have put it into the wrong
configuration setting or something. Thanks for quoting this to me. ;-)
If someone knows the right place to change this paragraph in the
mailman UI, I would appreciate the help.

And for your original question, I'm copying it to the list now, below.

Thanks again,

-Carl

Subject: glitz compilation failure


Hi,

 I tried to compile glitz. So I've got glitz-0.4.0, configured and make...
and then, blam!, error:

 gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../src -I../../src -g -O2 -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fno-strict-aliasing -MT glitz_glx_info.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/glitz_glx_info.Tpo -c glitz_glx_info.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/glitz_glx_info.o

 Hmm. Above those error there is "static glitz_glx_thread_info_t thread_info " 
declared. Shouldn't those references causing errors use "." instead of "->"?

 System is Slackware -current with gcc-3.4.3, Xorg 6.8.2 with matrox driver (so
no closed GLX).
