           Summary: compress.c compilation fails for x86_64-*-mingw*
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.21 (HEAD)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: binutils
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden


Cross-build of today's snapshot of binutils for x86_64-w64-mingw32 target on a
i686-pc-linux host failed due to -Werror from compress.c:

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
../../binutils-cvs/bfd/compress.c: In function 'bfd_compress_section_contents':
../../binutils-cvs/bfd/compress.c:106: error: passing argument 2 of 'compress'
from incompatible pointer type
/usr/include/zlib.h:1009: note: expected 'uLongf *' but argument is of type
'bfd_size_type *'

uLongf of zlib.h is unsigned long, but bfd_size_type for win64 is unsigned long
long, hence the warning->error. Same snapshot surely compiles for
i686-*-mingw32.
