Hi, The attached patch permits libdecnumber to be compiled by a non-GNU make. I realise that gcc requires GNU make for the build, but recently libdecnumber has been incorporated in GDB to enable DFP debugging, and GDB doesn't require GNU make. The change is to substitute the "ifeq" condition to determine inclusion of BID-related objects in the library by a variable which is set by the configure script. Is this ok? -- []'s Thiago Jung Bauermann Software Engineer IBM Linux Technology Center
