Description Charlie Sharpsteen 2011-05-04 10:31:44 UTC 
For Mac OS X 10.5.x, the newest Apple compilers available are GCC 4.0.1 in XCode 3.1.4 . This version of GCC does not support the `-Wno-address` flag which causes `make` to halt.  If I patch out lines 19476-19479 in the D-Bus 1.4.8 configure script, everything compiles fine.

I'm not that handy with Autoconf, so I apologize for not having a patch to submit---but perhaps there could be a `--disable-debug` flag or something similar that reduces the number of warning flags that get passed to the compiler?
Comment 1 Simon McVittie 2011-05-09 10:12:19 UTC 
The right fix would be to only enable this warning if your gcc supports it, like in Bug #19681.
