Comment 0 for bug 455122

I'm guessing that this is a gcc problem (both gcc-4.3 and gcc-4.4) that's exposed by the latest samba/cifs code in Karmic, but maybe this is a samba problem, or maybe something else.

I can't seem to run gcc in a samba-mounted directory under Karmic (up to date as of 2009-10-18), but this was okay in 9.04 Ubuntu....

rsm@hina:/c/Temp/y$ mount | grep cifs
//1USL13385/C on /c type cifs (rw,mand)
rsm@hina:/c/Temp/y$ cat grape.c
int main() { return 0; }
rsm@hina:/c/Temp/y$ gcc grape.c
cc1: error: grape.c: Value too large for defined data type
rsm@hina:/c/Temp/y$

The problem seems to happen in cc1. I tried this with strace in
  - Karmic, local mount
  - Karmic, cifs mount
  - 9.04, cifs mount
and the only obvious difference I notice is the huge inode number in the Karmic/cifs combination...
