[Mingw-cross-env-list] tryiing to compile Octave

[Alois Schlögl]

I'm trying to compile Octave [1] with mxe, and the following issues:

When compiling for i686-pc-mingw32, compilation stops with this error:

In file included from oct-time.h:26:0,
                 from file-stat.h:28,
                 from file-ops.cc:43:

error: '::localtime' has not been declared
make[5]: *** [liboctave_la-file-ops.lo] Error 1


Compilation for the x86_64-w64-mingw32 stops with the following error:


fstat.c:73:1: error: conflicting types for 'rpl_fstat'
In file included from sys/stat.h:49:0,
                 from fstat.c:40:
./sys/stat.h:642:1: note: previous declaration of 'rpl_fstat' was here
fstat.c: In function 'rpl_fstat':
fstat.c:83:3: warning: passing argument 2 of 'orig_fstat' from 
incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
fstat.c:31:1: note: expected 'struct _stat64 *' but argument is of type 
'struct stat *'


The latest version of src/octave.mk is in [2]

Any idea how to address these issues ?
