Re: CVS commit: src/lib/libpthread

[Antti Kantee <pooka%iki.fi@localhost>]

This is the simplest program to repeat the problem with g++ 5.1 and 
NetBSD's pthread_types.h:

#include <pthread.h>
class foo {
	pthread_mutex_t m;
public:
	constexpr foo() : m(PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER) {}
};

(plus or minus typos since I typed it by hand from the virtual machine 
console)

If there's some way to say "pthread_types.h is even more of a system 
header than with -isystem and compilers should not generate errors", 
then I'd like to hear it.

Also, if this is really the correct DR, I'm not sure how a flaw in the 
standard translates to "gcc bug"
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/cwg_defects.html#1911
(especially when there's no fix for the defect in the standard)

So, I really don't see how to sweep the issue under the rug except by a) 
figuring out a workaround b) labeling all C++ compilers which happen to 
implement the current standard as incompatible with NetBSD.
