bug#8555: [Bug Report] O_NOCACHE is a system define on AIX 5.1 and AIX 5.2

[Gary V. Vaughan]

Hi,

On AIX 5.1 and AIX 5.2, building coreutils-8.11 is not possible out of the
box, because dd.c has an enum that tries to set a new constant O_NOCACHE. On
these machines, O_NOCACHE is a preprocessor define in /usr/include/fcntl.c,
so the symbol in the dd.c enum definition is replaced by a constant before
the compiler sees it, so can't be compiled as is.

I worked around it as follows:

  gsed -i -e 's|O_NOCACHE|DD_NOCACHE|g' src/dd.c

I am not subscribed to this list, so please keep me in Cc for any
followups.

Cheers,
