/usr/ports/devel/icu does not compile

[Frank Pfabigan]

currently, i can't access files and screenoutput from my main computer
(where i am sitting right now writing this mail ^^).

in the output of /usr/ports/devel/icu compilation are a lot of "missing
binary operator before (" errors running very fast over the screen ;-)

i'm typing some lines from the screen of the mac mini (one of the error
lines):

...
/usr/include/stdint.h:68:68: error: missing binary operator before token "("
gmake[1]: *** [errorcode.ao] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/ports/devel/icu/work/icu/source/common'
gmake: ** [all-recursive] Error 2
===> Compilation failed unexpectedly.
...

can you guess what is wrong from these lines?

it's a pity that "pkg_add -r xfce" or "pkg_add -r icu" doesn't fetch any
binary-ready package.


thanks for the tipp with
make config-recursive
;-)
