I get a compilation failure in canonicalize.c due to unsupported C99 feature in MSVC, namely the ability to define variables anywhere in C code. Is is possible to swap lines 102 and 103 in that file? That is:
91 char *
92 canonicalize_filename_mode (const char *name, canonicalize_mode_t can_mode)
93 {
94 char *rname, *dest, *extra_buf = NULL;
95 char const *start;
96 char const *end;
97 char const *rname_limit;
98 size_t extra_len = 0;
99 Hash_table *ht = NULL;
100 int saved_errno;
101 int can_flags = can_mode & ~CAN_MODE_MASK;
102 can_mode &= CAN_MODE_MASK;
103 bool logical = can_flags & CAN_NOLINKS;
104 /* Perhaps in future we might support CAN_NOALLOC with CAN_NOLINKS. */
moving "logical" definition with the rest of the variables.
Michael.
