make[2]: *** [libmysql.lo] Error 1

Description:
When attempting to run "make" on mysql-4.0.14, the following error occurs:

gcc -DDEFAULT_CHARSET_HOME=\"/mysql\" -DDATADIR=\"/mysql/var\"
-DSHAREDIR=\"/mysql/share/mysql\" -DUNDEF_THREADS_HACK

my compile command sequence was:

#> ./configure --prefix=/mysql
#> make

The configure passed without incident.

Compile environment:
gcc: 3.2
make: 3.79.1
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server version 8, running k_smp 2.4.19-333
IBM xServer 360, 1024 MB RAM, 1.8 GB swap, 10 GB HDD.

How to repeat:
Untar source tarball
create install directory /mysql (in my case, it was a separate partition mounted to
/mysql)
cd into source tree
run configure script with --prefix=/mysql
run make

Suggested fix:
That, I couldn't give ya. I have looked at the code and my_real_connect is defining arg 5
(tmp_errno) as an int, then passing it by reference to my_gethostbyname_r, which expects
an int * as an arg there. Looks fine, but it still won't compile.

 

----------------------------------------------------------------

By default, the configure script attempts to determine the correct number of arguments by
using g++ the GNU C++ compiler. This test yields wrong results, if g++ is not installed.
There are two ways to work around this problem:

* Make sure that the GNU C++ g++ is installed. On some Linux distributions, the
   required package is called gpp, on others it is named gcc-c++.
* Use gcc as your C++ compiler by setting the CXX environment variable to gcc:

     export CXX="gcc"

Please note that you need to run configure again afterwards.

 

 

----------------------------------

make: *** [all] Error 2

解决:

修改config.h文件,添加如下一句:
#define HAVE_GETHOSTBYNAME_R_RETURN_INT 1

然后重新 ./configure    make 即可
