- Subject: [patch] assert.h causing problems with older GCC and XLC
Hi,
the assert function is using __func__ whenever __GNUC__ is defined, regardless
of the language level provided by the compiler. This causes Problem with the
XLC and probably older GCC versions. This patch first checks the __GNUC__
level then the __STDC_VERSION__. Ok to Apply?
