ACE Framework with gcc-3.4.4-r1 build failed

[LoRz]

After successfull apgrade to new gcc-3.4.4 I need to build ACE 5.4 but failed with the following message:

Sounds that problem in code. Anyone experienced similar result? Any workaround to fix it?

Ditto. Just got to the same point upgrading to gcc 3.4.4 using revdep-rebuild.

My ACE 5.4.8 and 5.4.9 compiles, BUT when you use mem_cpy it complains about
undefined reference fast_memcpy.

Any of you guys having same problem?

The Gentoo ebuilds for ACE is broken. They should not be creating a config.h and platfrom_macros.GNU file.

5.4.10 compiles cleanly.

I've got some spare time last weekend and finally manage to install latest stable ACE framework from their website.
Actually I've twicked ace-5.4.6.ebuild to run it against ACE-5.5 from overlay. I ran it step-by-step as described in
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Installing ... ty_Ebuilds. Here is ebuild code. It would be nice if somebody
more experienced than me 'd like to test it properly and put into portage for those interesting in this framework.
