I have a toolchain that dies building gdb with the following error:
/home/bergner/binutils/binutils-gdb/gdb/nat/linux-namespaces.c:39:1: error: static declaration of âsetnsâ follows non-static declaration
setns (int fd, int nstype)
^
In file included from /opt/at7.0/include/sched.h:41:0,
from /home/bergner/binutils/binutils-gdb/gdb/nat/linux-namespaces.c:30:
/opt/at7.0/include/bits/sched.h:91:12: note: previous declaration of âsetnsâ was here
extern int setns (int __fd, int __nstype) __THROW;
^
make[2]: *** [linux-namespaces.o] Error 1
My configure doesn't define HAVE_SETNS because my glibc defines __stub_setns,
so nat/linux-namespaces.c defines its own setns routine. However, my glibc
also has its sched.h with a extern prototype for setns, which conflicts with
this static version linux-namespaces.c is creating, so we get the error above.
How about the following patch to work around the error? I can confirm that
it fixes the problem on my multiple systems that do and do not have setns.
Ok for trunk?

* nat/linux-namespaces.c (setns): Rename from this ...
(do_setns): ... to this. Support calling setns if it exists.
(mnsh_handle_setns): Call do_setns.
