Compilation fails on Mac OS X 10.8.0 |

Hello,
Trying to compile the latest coreutils on Mac OS X, I get the following
compilation error:
$ ./configure
[ works OK ]
$ make
[ ... ]
CC lib/stpncpy.o
lib/stpncpy.c:34: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before
numeric constant
lib/stpncpy.c:34: error: expected ')' before '!=' token
lib/stpncpy.c:34: error: expected ')' before '?' token
make[2]: *** [lib/stpncpy.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
This happens with the released version 8.20, and also with "8.20.90-e27bfd" (I
had to git-pull on another machine and do "make dist" to generate it).
The compiler is (From Apple's Xcode-452-command-line-tools package):
$ clang --version
Apple clang version 4.1 (tags/Apple/clang-421.11.66) (based on LLVM 3.1svn)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0
Thread model: posix
The OS is:
$ uname -a
Darwin minimacc.local 10.8.0 Darwin Kernel Version 10.8.0: Tue Jun 7
16:33:36 PDT 2011; root:xnu-1504.15.3~1/RELEASE_I386 i386
I can provide more details if needed.
Regards,
-gordon

Thanks for checking. I pushed the following patch into gnulib
and am marking this coreutils bug as done.
