[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: pcp
Version: 3.6.4

src/pmdas/logger/event.c, function event_config, uses "restrict" as a variable
name.  This collides with the fact that in C99 "restrict" is a keyword.
Compilers that default to C99-mode, or gcc -std=c99, fail to compile this code.

Best,
Michael

Thanks Michael, good timing too - we'll probably be putting out a PCP
release late next week, I'll make sure change this is included.

cheers.
