Message-ID: <aZ2R8k1MRiPwJwOC@stanley.mountain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <29424a96-4c7c-4076-99bc-903cd857f89a@codethink.co.uk>
Oh, sorry, Al's branch changed that code more than I imagined. I would
resend the patch, but I need to figure out this GCC warning...
CC pre-process.o
pre-process.c: In function ‘substitute’:
pre-process.c:785:16: warning: function may return address of local variable [-Wreturn-local-addr]
785 | return list;
| ^~~~
pre-process.c:687:31: note: declared here
687 | struct token *added, *arg;
| ^~~~~
Anyway, here is what I've forward ported.
regards,
dan carpenter
