Bug 22873

Summary: [perl] Perl's core.h conflicts with ncurses.h
Product: Base System Reporter: Michael Samanov <mike>
Component: binAssignee: Mark Murray <markm>
Status: Closed FIXED    
Severity: Affects Only Me    
Priority: Normal    
Version: 4.1-STABLE   
Hardware: Any   
OS: Any   

Description Michael Samanov 2000-11-15 16:00:02 UTC 
	When you are trying to compile something, including
/usr/libdata/perl/5.00503/mach/CORE/proto.h and
/usr/include/curses.h, compiler fails complaining to 'instr'
wrong re-declaration

Fix: 

Add "#define instr ncurses_instr" somewhere after
	#include "perl.h" and before #include <curses.h>
How-To-Repeat: 
	bash# h2xs -n Test
	bash# cd Test
	< Insert #include <curses.h> into Test.xs >
	bash# perl Makefile.PL
	bash# make

Over to in-tree perl maintainer.

the title is correct, the analysis is wrong (curses defined instr() before
the name was use in Perl).

Perl is no longer in the base system.
