Description Todd Richmond 2011-08-26 23:24:36 UTC 
There is no way to get around the check for the required getaddrinfo() replacement that was added for bug 5910 (according to configure comments).

Using libreplace_cv_HAVE_GETADDRINFO=yes gets past the first check for a system where getaddrinfo is correct (most any relatively new system is fine) but the extra check ignores this preset value

I commented out the abort and Samba 3.6 now compiles (and runs with one more hack!) on OpenWRT

Can you attach a patch for this so I can understand exactly what you're proposing here ?

Thanks !

Jeremy.

My workaround was just to comment out the cross-compile restriction, so it isn't a full patch. It does show the problem code though
