I think we could remove CURL_DISABLE_TYPECHECK for GCC>= 4.5.0, but
keep it for older GCC versions.
Yes, that sounds better. I guess I'll whip up the patch, then.
I tried to figure out how to detect GCC version in configure.ac, but
my autotools-fu is weak today.
No need to worry about configure.ac. It is doable all with preprocessor
statements:
/* Some versions of libcurl trigger a gcc bug with -Wlogical-op
* that was fixed for gcc 4.5.0; disable the problematic libcurl
* code if we don't detect a good enough compiler. */
#if __GNUC__ < 4 || (__GNUC__ == 4 && __GNUC_MINOR < 5)
# define CURL_DISABLE_TYPECHECK
#endif
