And here are some more compilation problems (not related to amd64).
Every one has a patch attached.

1. Compiling without FEATURE_SHADOWPASSWDS and with no shadow.h:

  CC      applets/applets.o
In file included from include/libbb.h:54,
                 from include/busybox.h:10,
                 from applets/applets.c:15:
include/shadow_.h:23:20: error: shadow.h: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [applets/applets.o] Error 1

2. Compiling without FEATURE_FIND_XDEV (misplaced #endif):

  CC      findutils/find.o
findutils/find.c: In function 'find_main':
findutils/find.c:582: error: expected declaration or statement at end of input
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
findutils/find.c:582: warning: control reaches end of non-void function
make[1]: *** [findutils/find.o] Error 1

3. Compiling without FEATURE_FIND_EXEC:

  CC      findutils/find.o
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
findutils/find.c:85: warning: 'count_subst' defined but not used
findutils/find.c:96: warning: 'subst' defined but not used
make[1]: *** [findutils/find.o] Error 1

4. Compiling without ASH_JOB_CONTROL:

  CC      shell/ash.o
shell/ash.c:92:5: error: "JOBS" is not defined
shell/ash.c:1215:5: error: "JOBS" is not defined
[...]
shell/ash.c:8063:5: error: "JOBS" is not defined
shell/ash.c:11769:5: error: "JOBS" is not defined
make[1]: *** [shell/ash.o] Error 1

5. Compiling without any pwd_grp enabled in the system (neither in
uClibc nor in busybox). My system don't even have a /etc/passwd. It
don't have any kind of user management. And I don't wan't any user
managment code to get compiled in. Note that I didn't fixed this one
properly. I just wrote a crappy hack to get busybox to finally compile.
So 11_pwd_grp.diff shouldn't be commited. It's here just for the
example. Someone need to propose a proper fix.


With all it's compilation problems, 1.3.0 sounds more like a RC than
a final release. Well, I guess that a 1.3.1 will be needed very soon...
