it makes no sense to me either, as romcc is clean and well-written. It is
just what I have seen: it won't work on my RH 7.3 box, with:
gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-110)
BTW, config.py as of today doesn't work with this error:
File "/home/rminnich/src/freebios2/util/newconfig/config.py", line 1393,
in term
return long(NUM, 10)
TypeError: long requires exactly 1 argument; 2 given
I think somebody broke something. Python it turns out rotates function
definitions frequently, with the result that it is hard to write
python-version-independent code.
