Compiling trunk

[Stefan Winter]

Hi,

I managed to find an ancient box with gcc 2.95.3, and couldn't
compile current CVS HEAD. I wonder if anyone cares; should I
report further issues on such old compilers? In any case, this
one here is:

gmake[4]: Entering directory `/root/radiusd/src/lib'

gmake[4]: *** [valuepair.lo] Error 1

make: *** [all] Error 2

And valuepair.c has on 1203:

(1202)                        q = strchr(p, '-');
(1203)                        char buffer[256];

Proper C still requires that variable declarations are at the beginning of
a block, even though recent compilers are quite forgiving in that respect.

Reversing the two lines fixed it, if anyone cares enough.

Greetings,

Stefan
