Re: [tz] gcc 8 demanded patch (from NetBSD)

Robert Elz said:

The following patch was recently added to NetBSD, to appease GCC 8 (apparently) ... "hit" is a bool, and it seems gcc 8 does not like ++ operators applied to one of those.

Hmm. It's legal, but it suggests dubious thinking on the part of whoever wrote it. It's exactly equivalent to "q = true". ("q--" is equivalent to "q = !q".) -- Clive D.W.
