The original enquiry was:
Does somebody already tried to compile BSD sendmail 8.9.3 on Tru64 5.0? On
my system I'v got 6 warnings. I'm not sure if I can just ignore these
warnings, or if this is a right problem:
...
cc: Warning: deliver.c, line 1703: In this statement, the referenced type of
the pointer value "gidset" is "int", which is not compatible with "unsigned
int". (ptrmismatch)
if (setgroups(1, gidset) == -1 &&
suidwarn)
---------------------------------------------------------^
Solution:
I'v got the confirmation that this problem was reproduceable on Tru64 V5.0
with both sendmail V8.9.3 and V8.10.0Beta6, and that the sendmail
development team was aware of this. This problem is actually being fixed on
the internal sendmail version 8.10.0. So I suppose you have to wait for
Beta7 or final version.
I'm actually not able to tell if those warnings have consequences on
sendmail.
