# HG changeset patch # User Paul Eggert # Date 1106092338 0 # Node ID 1d7e763b47dec88d053940a55e3da0db8572c1d4 # Parent 894ed271946d0b1d0c852055406e4dabeaf39bf4 Work around tests/touch/empty-file failure on a system (sparc64, Linux-2.4.28, glibc-2.3.3) that didn't honor utimes' NULL-means-set-to-current-time semantics. Remove temporary file immediately, rather than waiting for configure's at-exit trap code to do it. diff --git a/m4/utimes.m4 b/m4/utimes.m4 --- a/m4/utimes.m4 +++ b/m4/utimes.m4 @@ -1,8 +1,17 @@ +# Detect some bugs in glibc's implementation of utimes. + +dnl Copyright (C) 2003, 2004, 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. +dnl This file is free software; the Free Software Foundation +dnl gives unlimited permission to copy and/or distribute it, +dnl with or without modifications, as long as this notice is preserved. + # See if we need to work around bugs in glibc's implementation of # utimes from 2003-07-12 to 2003-09-17. # First, there was a bug that would make utimes set mtime # and atime to zero (1970-01-01) unconditionally. # Then, there was code to round rather than truncate. +# Then, there was an implementation (sparc64, Linux-2.4.28, glibc-2.3.3) +# that didn't honor the NULL-means-set-to-current-time semantics. # # From Jim Meyering, with suggestions from Paul Eggert. @@ -15,6 +24,7 @@ #include #include #include +#include #include #include #include @@ -27,13 +37,29 @@ struct stat sbuf; char const *file = "conftest.utimes"; FILE *f; + time_t now; - exit ( !
