Issue #1253 has been updated by Charlie Savage. Thanks for applying the LDFLAGS change, that is the most important one. #2 is still open, the one about applying the -link change. I think that is a better solution than what the makefile does now. But if you choose not to apply it, then you might want to remove the "-link" keyword couple of places it is currently used outside of LDFLAGS. The other two changes were updating setup.mak and the warnings (-W3). I'll move setup.mak to a new ticket once this one is closed. And on the warnings, I'll make that a separate patch dependent on whether the various compiler warning fix patches I have submitted get accepted or not. So you can consider those two closed for this patch. Thanks again for taking a look at these issues. ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/1253 ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
