7.1: Actual Bugs We Haven't Fixed Yet

• The fixincludes script interacts badly with automounters; if the directory of system header files is automounted, it tends to be unmounted while fixincludes is running. This would seem to be a bug in the automounter. We don't know any good way to work around it.
• The fixproto script will sometimes add prototypes for the sigsetjmp and siglongjmp functions that reference the jmp_buf type before that type is defined. To work around this, edit the offending file and place the typedef in front of the prototypes.
• Loop unrolling doesn't work properly for certain C++ programs. This is because of difficulty in updating the debugging information within the loop being unrolled. We plan to revamp the representation of debugging information so that this will work properly, but we have not done this in version 2.6 because we don't want to delay it any further.
