Hi Christopher,
Unfortunately, since I don't have a ChromeBook, I can not reproduce the
problem you encountered.
I tried to reproduce your problem on a x86_64-linux device and still
did not reproduce it with the trunk. After digging into this deeply, I
found that 'gdb/value.c' has already includes the 'vector' header file
after preprocessing.
Here's what I got,
value.c
|--defs.h
|--common-defs.h
|--common-utils.h (#include <vector>)
Finally, I noticed that you were compiling gdb-9.2. I know nothing
about the maintenance of closed branch. You may want to keep PING and
maintainers would show up to look at this.
Thanks,
Enze
