In PR 25731 [1], the following build failure was reported:
../../binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbtypes.c:1254:10: error: no member named 'abs' in namespace 'std'; did you mean simply 'abs'?
= ((std::abs (stride) * element_count) + 7) / 8;
^~~~~~~~
abs
/usr/include/stdlib.h:129:6: note: 'abs' declared here
int abs(int) __pure2;
^
The original report was using:
$ gcc -v
Apple LLVM version 8.0.0 (clang-800.0.42.1)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin15.6.0
Note that I was _not_ able to reproduce using:
$ g++ --version
Configured with: --prefix=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr --with-gxx-include-dir=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
Apple clang version 11.0.0 (clang-1100.0.33.17)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin19.3.0
The proposed fix is to include <cstdlib> in addition to <stdlib.h>.
Here's an excerpt of [2] relevant to this problem:
These headers [speaking of the .h form] are allowed to also declare
the same names in the std namespace, and the corresponding cxxx
headers are allowed to also declare the same names in the global
namespace: including <cstdlib> definitely provides std::malloc and
may also provide ::malloc. Including <stdlib.h> definitely provides
::malloc and may also provide std::malloc
Since we use std::abs, we should not assume that our include of stdlib.h
declares an `abs` function in the `std` namespace.
If we replace the include of stdlib.h with cstdlib, then we fall in the
opposite situation. A standard C++ library may decide to only put the
declarations in the std namespace, requiring us to prefix all standard
functions with `std::`. I'm not against that, but for the moment I think the
safest way forward is to just include both.
Note that I don't know what effect this patch can have on any stdlib.h fix
provided by gnulib.

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
