https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=42f46152849a2d4bd06a87c2dc795de1f7fc1af7 : [gdb/build] Fix build with undefined CXX_STD_THREAD When building gdb on openSUSE Leap 42.3, we trigger the case that CXX_STD_THREAD is undefined, and run into: ... gdb/maint.c: In function 'void maintenance_show_worker_threads \ (ui_file*, int, cmd_list_element*, const char*)': gdb/maint.c:877:14: error: 'gdb::thread_pool' has not been declared gdb::thread_pool::g_thread_pool->thread_count ()); ^ Makefile:1647: recipe for target 'maint.o' failed make[1]: *** [maint.o] Error 1 ... Fix this by handling the undefined CXX_STD_THREAD case in maintenance_show_worker_threads, such that we get: ... $ gdb -q -batch -ex "maint show worker-thread" The number of worker threads GDB can use is 0. ... Tested on x86_64-linux. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28312
