Clang's optimizer, as of clang version 2.8 (trunk 107463), produces the
undefined instruction 'ud2' for the code "*(int*)0=0" on OS X x86_64.
It causes our crash tests to fail because the child process exits with
an invalid instruction instead of a segmentation fault. Work around the
bug by using "*(int*)1=0" in this case.
Add option KWSYS_TEST_BOGUS_FAILURES that can be set by a containing
project or in the CMake cache to list tests known to fail consistently
on a buggy system.
Since commit "Provide unix-sytle command line parsing" (2009-07-13) the
reference to KWSYS_C_HAS_PTRDIFF_T in System.c has been meaningless
because the macro was never passed to the compiler!
The DynamicLoader::LibPrefix and DynamicLoader::LibExtension methods
previously hard-coded the module name components for each platform. Set
them from the CMAKE_SHARED_MODULE_PREFIX and CMAKE_SHARED_MODULE_SUFFIX
CMake variables instead. This ensures consistency in a program that
uses these methods to construct the file names for its own modules.
The CopyFileIfDifferent, CopyFileAlways, CopyAFile and CopyADirectory
methods should always copy permissions. The special cases in which a
caller would pass copyPermissions=false should be handled at the call
site. The parameter needlessly complicates the interface and semantics
of these methods.
On Windows 7 the file size reported by 'stat' on a new file sometimes
reports zero even though the real size is correct. This causes our
CopyFileAlways method to falsely detect copy failure. Work around the
problem by trusting the state of ofstream after writing the file.
