PATCH 1/1 package/exim: Fix compilation error with musl

From: Bernd Kuhls <[email protected]>

Fixes
smtp_in.c: In function ?smtp_start_session?:
smtp_in.c:1976:36: error: invalid application of ?sizeof? to incomplete type ?struct options?

     EXIM_SOCKLEN_T optlen = sizeof(struct ip_options) + MAX_IPOPTLEN;

smtp_in.c misdetects the needed style for ip_options, only OPTSTYLE == 2 works. Since musl does not provide any macro[1] to detect it we need to pretend to be darwin in order to fix the compile bug.

[Luca: simplify by using only one sed invocation]

---

I'm adopting this oldish patch (https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/460496/)
from Bernd. The bug it fixes is still there, and the fix is still valid. I just simplified it according to my comments to the original patch.

Changes v1 -> v2:
- simplify by using only one sed invocation (Luca).

Thanks for picking up an old patch, definitely useful! I'm not too happy with us pretending to be Darwin when building against Musl, as it could fire back on us in the future (like if Exim starts using something really Darwin specific). But oh well, I guess it's good enough for now.

Thanks!

Thomas

Indeed.

Actually, for the sake of _building_, setting NO_IP_OPTIONS instead of DARWIN_IP_OPTIONS would be fine as well. But it would result in OPTSTYLE to be set to 3, not 2. Bernd, do you think it would work anyway?

For the curious, the *_IP_OPTIONS defines are only referenced in this file:

http://git.exim.org/exim.git/blob/HEAD:/src/src/smtp_in.c#l1961

where there's a lengthy commentary about the headaches with the various C libraries.
