llvm-gcc42: error: vproc.h: No such file or directory

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

After building for awhile, llvm-gcc42 @2.5 fails for me, on Mac OS X 10.4.11 Intel with Xcode 2.5 and MacPorts 1.7.1:

I find this error is also mentioned here: ​http://itarchive.org/10162/86

"locate vproc.h" returns nothing on my system.

I see this error was also reported against screen in #18136; don't know if the fix there can be applied here.

Milestone Port Bugs deleted

Unfortunately the LLVM project does not seem to support ​darwin8.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The LLVM project ​now specifically states they do not support Tiger anymore and will not fix this problem. So the port should fail with a message to that effect. See the sleepwatcher port for an example of how this can be done.

llvm doesn't support darwin8. I'll add an early error like sleepwatcher has.
