[gnutls-devel] Build failure for GnuTLS 3.3.7

[Marius Schamschula]

Hello,

I’m the maintainer of the MacPorts port of GnuTLS. I updated the Portfile to the current version this afternoon. The build went smoothly on my OS X 10.9.4 system, but the buildbots failed to build GnuTLS 3.3.7:

The problem seems to be a missing stdnoreturn.h header file in src/libopts/autoopts.h:

Making all in libopts
make[4]: Entering directory `/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_mports_dports_devel_gnutls/gnutls/work/gnutls-3.3.7/src/libopts'

#include <stdnoreturn.h>
         ^
1 error generated.
make[4]: *** [libopts_la-libopts.lo] Error 1

The file seems to be part of libopts, the problem seems to have been introduced in version 3.3.7. stdnoreturn.h is part of the next C standard, and seems to be unavailable on older systems. Upstream commit that added the change was

commit 3d1a66d4f2716c72b146c6ec1feb2d886e2ef3b3
Author: Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos <nmav at gnutls.org>

    updated to lib opts 5.18.3

Is there a workaround for older systems?
