problems building sa-exim on ia64

Hi all,

I just spent some time trying to build exim-src-rpms (taken from 
ftp.exim.org) on one of my ia64-systems. Sadly, sa-exim caused problems.

Building sa-exim-4.1+cvs.so
gcc -I../../src -I./eximinc -DDLOPEN_LOCAL_SCAN 
-DSPAMASSASSIN_CONF=\"/etc/exim/sa-exim.conf\" 
-DSPAMC_LOCATION=\"/usr/bin/spamc\" -O2 -Wall -shared -o 
sa-exim-4.1+cvs.so sa-exim.c
sa-exim.c:512:2: warning: #warning you should not worry about the "might 
be clobbered by longjmp", see source
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/cc37rnoO.o: @gprel relocation against dynamic symbol 
version
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [sa-exim-4.1+cvs.so] Error 1
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.72130 (%build)


RPM build errors:
     Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.72130 (%build)


The rpm-changelog mentions "Updated to sa-exim+cvs (2004-08-23 
version)", so the changes vor sa-exim 4.1 (2004/08/16) that mention 
"made hopefully 64 bit clean" and a mistake preventing sa-exim from 
building should not apply in this case.

Since my ia64-hardware will never run sa-exim (just internal 
mail-routing, no connection to the "bad world outside"), this is 
acutally no problem for me, so I won't investigate it further. However, 
if you need more information of if I could try some patch I'll certainly 
try to help.
