As Iain reported, my change broke the case when one has bison >= 3,
but make decides there is no reason to regenerate plural.c, unfortunately
that seems to be a scenario I haven't tested. The problem is that
the pregenerated plural.c has been generated with bison 1.35, but when
config.h says HAVE_BISON3, the code assumes it is the bison3 variant.
What used to work fine is when one has bison >= 3 and plural.c has been
regenerated (e.g. do touch intl/plural.y and it will work), or when
one doesn't have any bison (then nothing is regenerated, but HAVE_BISON3
isn't defined either), or when one has bison < 3 and doesn't need to
regenerate, or when one has bison < 3 and it is regenerated.
The following patch fixes this, by killing the HAVE_BISON3 macro from
config.h, and instead remembering the fact whether plural.c has been created
with bison < 3 or bison >= 3 in a separate new plural-config.h header.
The way this works:
- user doesn't have bison
- user has bison >= 3, but intl/{plural-config.h,plural.c} aren't older than intl/plural.y
- user has bison < 3, but intl/{plural-config.h,plural.c} aren't older than intl/plural.y
pregenerated !USE_BISON3 plural.c and plural-config.h from source
dir is used, nothing in the objdir
- user has bison >= 3 and intl/plural.y is newer
Makefile generates plural.c and USE_BISON3 plural-config.h in the
objdir, which is then used in preference to srcdir copies
- user has bison < 3 and intl/plural.y is newer
Makefile generates plural.c and !USE_BISON3 plural-config.h in the
objdir, which is then used in preference to srcdir copies
I have tested all these cases and make all-yes worked in all the cases.
If one uses the unsupported ./configure where srcdir == objdir, I guess
(though haven't tested) that it should still work, just it would be nice
if such people didn't try to check in the plural{.c,-config.h} they have
regenerated.
What doesn't work, but didn't work before either (just tested gcc-9 branch
too) is when one doesn't have bison and plural.y is newer than plural.c.
Don't do that ;)
