Bug Description
The yarr patch was removed in the last upload since it was supposedly fixed upstream. Apparently not quite right just yet. This build failure shows up now:
c++ -o jsanalyze.o -c -fvisibility=hidden -DOSTYPE=
In file included from /build/
/build/
compilation terminated.
make[6]: *** [jsanalyze.o] Error 1
make[6]: Leaving directory `/build/
Not sure if the same problem happens on arm (still building).
Could I ask that next time a patch is removed that is known to be pertinent to successful building on powerpc that you let me do a quick build before upload? Will save us these round trips on the buildd (which is much slower, and tend not to work well as test build systems).
Thanks

Oh, the patch was disabled because it needs work. I knew that it didn't build on powerpc, and that was also clear on the upstream bug as well.
This is going to be a regular occurrence (every 6 weeks) because the JS engine changes fast, and powerpc is only a tier 3 platform upstream (which means that it gets no consideration upstream when making changes, and is only kept alive by distributions)
