[Dovecot] 1.0.rc27 released - Compiling on AIX - brovke bitfield in mbox-sync-private.h

[Ralf Becker]

Hi Timo,

there is a small build problem in dovecot 1.0.rc27 on AIX:

-------------------------------8<------------------------------------
source='mbox-file.c' object='mbox-file.o' libtool=no  DEPDIR=.deps
depmode=aix /bin/bash ../../../../depcomp
/usr/local/src/mail/src/bin/dovecot-cc -qlanglvl=ansi -DHAVE_CONFIG_H
-I. -I../../../..  -I../../../../src/lib  -I../../../../src/lib-mail
-I../../../../src/lib-imap  -I../../../../src/lib-index
-I../../../../src/lib-storage  -I../../../../src/lib-storage/index
-DLDAP_DEPRECATED=1 -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include  -g  -c
mbox-file.c
"mbox-sync-private.h", line 50.17: 1506-009 (S) Bit-field uid_broken
must be of type signed int, unsigned int or int.
"mbox-sync-private.h", line 51.17: 1506-009 (S) Bit-field expunged must
be of type signed int, unsigned int or int.
"mbox-sync-private.h", line 52.17: 1506-009 (S) Bit-field pseudo must be
of type signed int, unsigned int or int.
--------------------------------->8----------------------------------

It is that uid_broken, expunged, pseudo are defined as uint8_t:1 which
is seemingly not allowed by xlc. Changing it to uint32_t:1 solves the
problem. Do you think this is a appropriate way to fix this?

I've attached a patch containing my changes.

Regards, Ralf Becker
