fortune doesn't build under Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard

I can confirm this (Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro). Here is the error text:

I concur fortune won't build with Leopard on my Intel MBP & a PPC PowerBook as well. Shouldn't the priority of this bug be raised above "normal"?

[afb@…]

Depends on how vital "fortune" is to your every-day functionality :-)

It build and works OK on Tiger, so it's Yet Another Leopard Issue...

[seanrees@…]

buildable port on Leopard

[seanrees@…]

I consider 'fortune' to be pretty vital... :)

Made a few fixes; strfile/strfile.h --> #include <stdint.h> [strfile/strfile.c, unstr/unstr.c, fortune/fortune.c] --> OSSwapHostToBigInt32 -> htonl (from machine/endian.h)

I decided to make new patches for the OSSwapHostToBigInt32 -> htonl on for darwin 9 instead of patching the patch (though I just edited the existing patch files). Not sure of the standard way to approach this :)

Cheers.

Thanks, <stdint.h> is needed on all platforms and patch should have used "htonl" instead of the Tiger-specific internal function (it was probably broken on Panther as well as on Leopard...)

Applied in r31206.
