Thanks for the ticket. In the future, please Cc relevant port maintainers.

[berg.michael1@…]

Thanks for fixing that, and for the title change. I'm relatively new to this sort of thing.

I forgot to include my system: Power Mac G5 2x2.7GHz OS X 10.5.8

So there is no chance on PowerPC/Leopard?

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Looks the same as #29860, which was fixed, but apparently only for Tiger?

[berg.michael1@…]

This appears to be a recurring issue, #24393 documented this as well.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Yes, it was fixed for Tiger in #24393. Then, when updating to a newer version, Jeremy removed the fix, hoping it was no longer necessary. But it was still necessary, resulting in #29860, in which we fixed it for Tiger again.

My PowerPC machines dual-boot Tiger and Leopard, and it did not seem to be necessary on Leopard, so the fix was targeted to Tiger only.

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

Ryan, could you please workaround this as appropriate?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

When I set up my new PowerPC test machine at the beginning of the year, mesa built fine on Leopard. Now it does not.

The only change made to mesa this year is r102282 which removed the block that changed the compiler from gcc-4.0 to gcc-4.2 on Leopard. Reverting that change fixes the problem. Reverted it in r103261.

[berg.michael1@…]

Thank you! Works fine.
