Hi,

I have a problem compiling libxml2 from the ports. the error is this:

cc -O -pipe -pedantic -W -Wformat -Wunused -Wimplicit -Wreturn-type -Wswitch -Wcomment -Wtrigraphs -Wformat -Wchar-subscripts -Wuninitialized -Wparentheses -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings -Waggregate-return -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Winline -Wredundant-decls -o .libs/xpath1 xpath1.o  -L/usr/local/lib ../../.libs/libxml2.so -lz -liconv -lm -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib
../../.libs/libxml2.so: undefined reference to `__signbit'
gmake[3]: *** [xpath1] Error 1
gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/textproc/libxml2/work/libxml2-2.6.18/doc/examples'
gmake[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/textproc/libxml2/work/libxml2-2.6.18/doc'
gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/textproc/libxml2/work/libxml2-2.6.18'
gmake: *** [all] Error 2
*** Error code 2

Ive tried compiling several different versions of libxml all produce the same error. I contacted the xml list for libxml2 and have been directed towards os help with the compiler, apperntly the compiler includes are not in sync with the installed libc. I know compat4x was installed recently and dont know if this has and relation.

I have included the text of the conversation on the libxml list for reference, Ideally I need to get this back up so i can get php-xml to run. Any suggestions here would be useful as I am out of my depth when it come to compilers and how they work.

unfortuantly rebuilding the box is out of the question, im away on a busiessness trip about 10000 miles from the server :(, so any solution that might be a temporary fix till i can get back next week would be a start


Regards

Alex
