Hopefully, there is some fix for issue 3 which is beyond my skill to fix.
Issue 1) Need recent gcc version Issue 2) Cannot build with --enable-hardening Issue 3) dovecot/doveconf segfaults on startup
Just to be sure ...
You did gmake clean; ./configure <opts>; gmake
I did a bazillion iterations of "make distclean; make; make install", so it's no problem to do it once more to make sure.
We'll look at the 3rd issue,
Thank you.
the 2nd issue looks really odd, verging on compiler bug there.
Googling "-fstack-protector-strong" and "__stack_chk_guard" brings up this issue often.
As for 1st, isn't gcc 3 rather old?
Yeah. I hoped we could retire together, but gcc3 violated the adage "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". It broke, so ...
Thanks again for looking into this.
