Re: [Chicken-users] Sendfile error on Red Hat 5.5 64 Bit

[David Krentzlin]

Hello Vok,

somehow the feature-selection code in sendfile.setup finds that your 
system supports posix advices. I need some time to figure out why that 
happens. I'm not sure why this would work on the 32bit platform and fail 
on the 64bit platform though.

As a quick fix you can adjust the sendfile.setup to include the features 
that are present.

Something like:
(compile -s -O2 -d0 -D sendfile -D mmap -D madvise sendfile.scm -j sendfile)

instead of:
(compile -s -O2 -d0 ,@features sendfile.scm -j sendfile)


Thanks for reporting it.

Cheers David
