I tried compiling latest SVN with --enable-gnu-regex on an x86-64 system.
I only had time to look at the first few of them but the following errors seem to be due to casting between pointers and int but on x86-64 int is 32 bits and pointer is 64 bits so it isn't going to work :-(.
The regex library shipped with geany is from 2002 (or earlier, I don't know) so it's pretty old. It would be best to upgrade to the latest one from glibc (or the one that ships with the latest ctags which appears to be from 2009).
I think it should be upgraded.
By the way does geany have to provide its own copy of the regex library? Isn't it already required by glib or gtk? It's also probably
I'm not sure whether our required version of GLib/GTK require system regex.
Also does having GLib/GTK development files installed always mean you also have the regex library headers installed?
available on every unix system, I'm just not sure in what environment geany is compiled under windows.
The shipped one is always used on Windows IIRC.
