Subject: [PATCH] fix headers_install for x86-64.
Date: Tue, 26 Jun 2007 09:03:46 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200706260903.47181.rob@landley.net> (raw)
Signed-off-by: Rob Landley <rob@landley.net>
A bug in headers_install for ARCH=x86_64 yields an asm/ directory full of
files all of which are using the same #ifdef guard, "__ASM_STUB_" with no
postfix. So the second and later asm files #included in the same C file
(often through standard headers like ioctl.h) yields no symbols.

There's a missing semicolon after the assignment to FNAME (so the assignment
of STUBDEF on the next line doesn't see the value), and it helps to export
variables before calling a subshell.
