Re: [PATCH] compat/fopen.c: avoid clobbering the system defined fopen macro

From: Mike Ralphson <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:44:35

2008/5/7 Brandon Casey [off-list ref]:
Some systems define fopen as a macro based on compiler settings.
The previous technique for reverting to the system fopen function
by merely undefining fopen is inadequate in this case. Instead,
avoid defining fopen entirely when compiling this source file.

Both with and without -D_LARGE_FILES. Many thanks.

H.Merijn, is this change also ok for your HP-UX?

I guess there may still be a case for not defining _LARGE_FILES by
default on AIX as all the warnings may be off-putting or mask other
issues. Maybe instead having a comment for those who need large
pack-file support? Will submit amended Makefile patch if there's
interest.
