Right, the code does something if fd =3D=3D 0, but I'm actually trying to
avoid learning the internals. =C2=A0Alas this has already chewed up a lot
of time and I haven't made any headway trying to reproduce it so I'm
about ready to throw in the towel.=C2=A0 The code path looks very simple:
read the command line and call a function to open a file.=C2=A0 The thing
is, the file opens just fine, and I can even read from it, but fstat
(or the S_ISX macros) puke.=C2=A0 I tried stripping out all non-essentials
in the Makefile (e.g. it defines __EXTENSIONS__, _GNU_SOURCE, etc. and
does some odd stuff with paths) to no avail.=C2=A0 In case anybody wants
to give it a try on another machine, the function is tcreadfile in
tcutil.h in =C2=A0http://sourceforge.net/projects/tokyocabinet/ - remember
you have to add
#define strtold(a,b) ((long double)strtod((a),(b)))
to tcutil.c so tcatoix will compile.=C2=A0 Other than that I think it will
compile on 1.7.
Thanks,
