in thread [C Question] Determine if gcc provides erfl() function

Suppose the test was to merely pass a flag like -DMISSING_foo, and that in your XS you'd provide a respective stub instead of the missing function? (The stub would raise an exception ie die.) Is the lack of powl/erfl so critical that there'd be no point in providing the package without them?

Is the lack of powl/erfl so critical that there'd be no point in providing the package without them? Probably not, though do we know that there aren't any more missing symbols for which I'd only have to write additional stubs ? I'll try doing as you suggest when I've got some time, and see how it pans out. Cheers, Rob	[reply]
