Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] maint: turn on gcc logical-op checking

This would have detected the bug in commit 38ad33931 (Aug 09), which we missed until commit f828ca35 (Jul 10); over 11 months later. However, on Fedora 13, it also triggers LOTS of warnings from the libcurl-devel header for one file: esx/esx_vi.c: In function 'esxVI_CURL_Perform': esx/esx_vi.c:232: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op] esx/esx_vi.c:232: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op] esx/esx_vi.c:232: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op] ... I figure the gross hack to disable the warnings in the third-party code, along with the reduction in type-safety in just esx_vi.c, is worth the improved compiler checking throughout the rest of libvirt. * acinclude.m4 (--enable-compile-warnings=error): Add -Wlogical-op. * src/esx/esx_vi.c (includes): Hack around broken libcurl-devel header, to avoid compilation warning.
